A recent article claimed that ASUS and Gigabyte have ramped production of P4 boards, and production for i850 based boards exceeds that of DDR based boards. The implication is that demand has increased since the Intel price cuts, however other reports have indicated that ASUS increased production based upon forecasts vs. actual demand.

Asustek, the News reckons, fell by 20 per cent in April with 800,000 desktop mobo shipments

Isn't P4 ever going to take off? Doesn't it have the advantage of that new "super memory?"

There was an ad in this Sunday's paper from Best Buy for a 1.3GHZ Athlon system with DDR memory. There was a big DDR logo next to the PC. How come P4 ads don't remind customers that P4 comes with RDRAM?

Their poly gate lengths at the 0.13-micron node are now below 100 nanometers...

Translated 90-95nm. Hardly on par with the rest of the industry.
