Win,

"I'm most curious about availability."

That's what Van Smith says (don't know if it is true):

See vanshardware.com

"Northwood was originally expected to launch last October, but Intel had to postpone the chip until today. Reported Northwood shortages appear to confirm suspicions that this delay might have fallen short of the chipmaker’s aim to provide enough time to sufficiently ramp up production. A quick survey of Price Watch, a shopping engine that specializes in computer parts, comes up dry for Northwood P4s, while the Athlon XP 2000+ is available from about a dozen vendors.

2.2GHz Pentium 4 parts have also not yet made their way to Intel favorite son OEM vendor, Dell computers. The Round Rock, Texas-based computer maker usually has first dibs on new Intel chips.

Circumstantial evidence strongly suggests that Intel has not yet solved its production problems involving high-clocked P4s. This makes today’s debut of the 2.2GHz P4 a somewhat hollow affair.

While AMD has fired a bona fide cannonball at Intel’s noggin in the Athlon XP 2000+, it appears that Intel might be shooting back blanks with the 2.2GHz Pentium 4."

Win/lose/draw,
RE:"The recently announced 1.3 celery has 0 entries."

I've seen 1.3 Ghz Celery boxes on retail shelves.

With Intel, the large OEMS appear to get the few chips first.
