Pentium 4 mobos double in number theregister.co.uk Moving on through the day's stories, I thought you'd enjoy this one, Elmer. As the revised version of Tehama isn't with us yet (manufacturing was scheduled to start this week), the AX4T board on show in Tokyo is fitted with the pre-revision chipset. This doesn't matter too much as there isn't actually a Pentium 4 on the board, but visitors are assured that it would work, were one to be fitted, honest. Details including the price of the motherboard and the date that it will go on sale remain a mystery. No other mobo makers are exhibiting Pentium 4 motherboards in public at the World PC Expo event, but some companies are reputedly running demos of their 1.5GHz Pentium 4 products in behind-the-scenes, private showrooms reserved for corporate bigwigs only. Almost all of these will be using Intel's own TTM (Time To Market) Garibaldi 850 mobo. Sounds oddly similar to the Athlon MP demo you're bitching and moaning about, Elmer. Of course, the P4, like your celeries, isn't rated for MP operation either.
