<< If the P4 performance numbers released so far are anywhere near actual performance, satisfying demand will be no problem.... Because there won't be any demand. >> I think you radically overestimate the number of people who will buy based on performance and not based on ghz sells. << Those ixbt numbers had better be way, way, off, or Intel is facing several years of having nothing competitive to sell. It's taken 5 years to get from PPro to P4, if they have to wait another couple of years, to get to the next core... >> Current apps won't show the performance difference, so people will buy the bigger number, the better name, and blissfully assume it's better.
