Elmer, By no means are all embedded devices speced at 125C. 125C is the standard for reporting embedded speeds. The PPC guys tried to weasel their way around this at MPF two years ago, and nearly got thrown out of the place. Embedded manufacturing does not sort, because it adds too much to the cost of the CPU. The PC market has not always used 90C. Pretty close. With the greater power dissipation of modern CPU's, this number should be going up- not down. While Intel is introducing sub 1W notebook processors, I find it rather funny to hear you saying Intel is going to have trouble competing because of power. What does that have to do with the P4 problem we were talking about? Scumbria
