Scumbria, RE:"Intel rushed the 1.13GHz launched and screwed it up. Are you suggesting that they will feel more pressure to do the same with Willy? That's the big kahuna question... Just think about it...they screwed up a release of a 6 year old core. What's gonna happen WHEN they rush out a NEW, wiz bang, rube goldberg core? That's scary. I hope they validated it...<G> Do you think they will be twice shy now and delay Willy or maybe release a few engineering samples like 1.13Mhz P3s and call it a launch knowing they won't have to recall too many chips if something goes wrong? It will be interesting to see if clear heads at Intel grab the bull by the horns away from whomever has been making the recent dead launch decisions. RE:"I suppose that screwing up the P4 launch could push INTC up another couple of bucks..." Probably through the roof... Jim
