NG, Re: <With an expected launch price of $562 for the 2.2GHz Northwood, I can't see too many people of intellect queuing up to buy. >

LOL. No. That's a trading chip, not a selling chip!

The chip giant has been hyping up multithreading since earlier this year, downgrading sheer megahurts and showing slides that say using the microprocessor real-estate in a more intelligent way is a clear way forward for performance.

(Good stuff if you want to pay more for the OS than the CPU, then double the cost of a lot of your software packages, but don't tell the bees that megahurts ain't the true gospel!)

This just keeps getting funnier and funnier!
