Tench, there are a few .18 478 pin P4's and I think those were meant to pave the way for the NWoods. The majority of < 2Ghz P4's are 423 pin.

Charles, your logic is getting really fuzzy here. I'm a frequent pilgrim to Fry's, and they've had 478 pin motherboards by the boatload. They've also had 478 pin processors on 0.18 micron... I'm not sure the production volumes bear our your assertion.

Constantine, Re: "there are a few .18 478 pin P4's and I think those were meant to pave the way for the NWoods. The majority of < 2Ghz P4's are 423 pin."

That's incorrect. While socket-423 has been around longer, socket-478 was launched in the third quarter, and since then, Intel has sold the majority of the Pentium 4 CPUs that they've made. Probably, socket-478 represents the majority of Willamette processors currently available.
