Dear Tony:

Pentium Pro was repipelined to get to P2 adding more stages, it is not the same core. Besides, I remember that PPro was available at 200MHz at intro, just not many were available. Will Tualatin get either to 2.1GHz (from P2 top at intro), or easier to 1.4GHz (from PPro top at intro)? You also assume that any CPU not having 64 bits would be saleable at that time. I do not think that a non 64 bit core could sell into the mainstream by that time. The only reason Tualatin even is going that high is deficiencies in P4. If it (P4) was a small barn burner, Intel would not need it (P3). It just shows how sad their position is.
