Glad to see you working hard to keep the BS in RMBS, Dave. Your BS policing skills haven't diminished. Or should I say, you can dish it out, but you can't take it. Seems to be par for the course around here.

Dave B. "Jim, Do you have any source for your "P4 Oct. 30" rumor other than that fool who said it was rolling out first in Indonesia?"

According to Jim McMannis, we don't need sources to prove rumors to be true,...


Actually, there were a lot of sources quoted in the press that P4 would roll out the end of October. Here are a couple.
"As first reported by CNET News.com, Intel pushed back delivery of the Pentium 4 to Nov. 20 from Oct. 30. The delay means some PC manufacturers will not be able to deliver systems with the new processor in time for the lucrative holiday sales rush. "

Sources at PC makers, speaking under request of anonymity, confirmed that a problem with how the 850 chipset interacts with PCI graphics cards was responsible for the Pentium 4 delay.

"Two PC makers said today that Intel notified them the processor would not be ready for delivery around Halloween, as expected, while sources at a third manufacturer said Intel indicated it may not arrive by then. The Pentium 4 is not expected until the week of Nov. 20 and possibly later."

Unfortunately, they also claim that P4 is delayed. Of course Kelley will deny that. <VBG>
