Dale, Re: "by the time Northwood accounts for half of Intel's P4 volume it will have a lower ASP than the current one for Willamette." Sorry to continue clarifying, Dale, but it sounds like you're onto something, yet it still doesn't sound right. When Northwood becomes half of Intel's P4 volume, doesn't that mean that Willamette will become the other 50%? How, then, do you figure that Northwood will sell for less than Willamette. It will come in faster clock speeds, and have higher performance. I would think that this deserves a premium over any Willamette chip. I'll agree that when Northwood becomes nearly all of Intel's Pentium 4 line, then it may end up being cost competitive relative to Willamette processors today, but certainly not cheaper than Willamette processors at that time. wanna_bmw

Dale, The initial ASP of Northwood will be higher than the current ASP of Willamette. But, by the time Northwood accounts for half of Intel's P4 volume it will have a lower ASP than the current one for Willamette. So when did you get appointed to the position of czar of Intel microprocessor selling prices?
