RE:"Jim, Anand benchmarked the DESKTOP Tualatin against Athlon 1.2s and 1.4s. Nobody is expecting much out of Tualatin in desktops. The article I posted was about the mobile Tualatin, against AMD's best mobile, the A4 1 GHz. In that case, the T clobbers the A. Bada bing."

OK...compare a 1.2 P-III to a A4 1 Gig and add in some higher end graphics etc and the P-III wins.

Compare a 1.2 A4 with a 1.2 Tualatin with a comparable set-up and the A4 clobbers the Tualatin. I like to compare chips. I guess that article was comparing notebooks...hardly a fair test of chip power.
Still, the Tualatin is a good chip and will make a good X-box and next generation Celeron.

It had better clobber the a4 considering it's produced on a finer process level. I expect both p4 and Athlon to smear the tualatin when they hit .13 micron process level as well.
