Jim, Re: <So the P-III isn't dying they are just going to call it a (tualatin) Celeron. With 256k L2? So it's really a P-III?>

That's what it's sounding like to me. When Intel said they were killing the P-III except for notebook I thought they were nuts. Now it sounds like they are going to keep the P-III name for 2002 in notebook and call (at least some of)what's today the P-III a Celeron.

Re: <This will not be a bad chip by any means but the public won't get it...again.
Businesses might though...>

If that's really what they're doing my guess is they sell like popcorn unless the performence is controlled somehow.

Yes. It could be a great value alternative to a $60.00 Athlon.
