Dan, Re: "The fireworks will start, particularly for Dell, if P4 can't be fit into a notebook weighing less than 6 pounds (whild maintaining 2 hour or better battery life), but SOI Athlon 4s make it into sub 5 pound notebooks with good battery life."

Maybe so, Dan, but it certainly helps that there are already notebooks available with Pentium 4 CPUs, while SOI Athlons won't be showing up for another 6 months - if that. Beating AMD to market by that much will certainly help, though if Barton is really a good chip, then AMD will probably gain market share by the end of the year. I wonder how Intel's .09u Pentium 4 and Banias processors will fare in 2003.
