Semi,<<<Intel has canceled plans for high-end versions of its 800-MHz Xeon processor, saying computer makers didn't want the chip.>>> This isn't really about engineering or market demand. This is about Intel PR. Do they really get paid for this kind of work. Otto Pijpker should let someone else do the speaking. Even Compaq's Steve Thieme might do: "Our customers are looking for less frequent updates with larger incremental gains," he said. "We certainly relay our customer requirements to Intel." "Every time Intel comes out with a new speed bump in the current Cascades line, these guys have to stop and qualify not only uniprocessor models, but dual-processor, four-way, eight-way...None of those qualifications is easy work."
