Jozef, Re: "What I am saying (about the model numbers) is that when 2200+ is released, it will not be 10% faster than 2000+. It will be faster by approximately the same percentage as 2.2 GHz Northwood is vs. 2 GHz."

Except this is not that case. You probably missed my discovery, which I posted a few days ago. It shows from AMD's own benchmarks that Pentium 4 megahertz outscales AMD model numbers by a sizable amount. If the trend continues, Northwood megahertz should start surpassing Palomino or Thoroughbred model numbers in the near future. That's why AMD needs Hammer. You can check out my findings here.
