Somehow, I have hard time believing that suddenly everything Intel does will be fail. With so many years of work, with so many resources at hand, with so much die space, with so many transistors, I have hard time to believe that Willy will be as bad as the thread anticipates. The chips surely will have some strenghts, where it will even outperform Piii and Athlon clock for clock, and it is probable that P4 will lead the clock speed race.

Joe,

I agree....I don't expect Intel to keep making errors indefinitely, so that the reaction to the P4 seems a little inappropriate. With the advent of the T-bird and the Mustang, I do believe that the P4 and the Athlon will be close enough in speed so that the Athlon does not become the replacement for the Celeron and K6 at the low end.

Is that your perspective as well?

And yes, the P3 was a typo.
