John, the question was about the AMD announcement of a model 3400+ processor in the fourth quarter based on the "Hammer" core. Paul Otellini responded that the Pentium 4 is ramping at or ahead of expectations, and that he is "bullish" on a 3GHz part by the end of the year. He also said that he thinks the Pentium 4 will continue to lead in performance on 32-bit code, and Intel has a more robust fully 64-bit product for markets requiring 64-bit code.

Re: What does this mean?
Hammer! AMD: talking up 3400. Paul: on track for 3 GHz by EOY, think we'll be the fastest on 32 bit code.


Why, that their large staff of benchmark falsifiers is hard at work, of course!

You know, tracking down some bug - like the one they used to fake a good P4 score in Sysmark 2001.
