Re: "Prototypes with real live Foster chips? DP/MP, both? More to come Monday I guess" IBM's demo would coincide with Intel's developers forum. Perfect time to unveil a 16 way SMT Foster monster. Meanwhile AMD has a dual processor K7 working in the lab....sort of.....

Tony, Elmer - Intel may "reveal" the 1.13 GHz Tualatin/Pentium III next week (0.13 Micron/Copper) - and a 1.7 GHz Pentium 4. "the company is also hedging its bets by readying a 1.13-GHz version of the Pentium III. Code-named Tualatin, the chip will be fabricated in a 0.13-micron process technology." Paul {===================} Intel hedges bets in processor market with new Pentium chips, sources say By Semiconductor Business News Feb 23, 2001 (6:49 PM) URL: siliconstrategies.com SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- In an apparent move to hedge its bets in the microprocessor market, Intel Corp. will shortly announce new versions of its Pentium III and 4 chips, according to sources. Intel is reportedly expected to expand its Pentium 4 processor line by shortly announcing a 1.7-GHz version of the chip, according to sources. At present, Intel's fastest Pentium 4 processor runs at 1.5-GHz. Intel hopes to move the mainstream PC market towards the Pentium 4 line by year's end, but the company is also hedging its bets by readying a 1.13-GHz version of the Pentium III. Code-named Tualatin, the chip will be fabricated in a 0.13-micron process technology. The company is apparently keeping the Pentium III family alive until it can sort out the chip set issues with the Pentium 4, analysts speculated. The Pentium 4 only supports Rambus Inc.'s Direct Rambus memory interface. Intel is working on Pentium 4-compliant chip sets that support competitive memory architectures, such as SDRAM and double-data-rate (DDR) SDRAM as well. Intel is expected to ship the new Pentium III and 4 processors as early as the second quarter of this year. It may announce these products at next week's Intel Developer Forum event in San Jose, sources added.
