Any idea what this is? The article also mentions Smithfield, so I assume it's something else. But if this is in reference to Smithfield, isn't HyperThreading supposed to be disabled.

Intel will be offering a Dual-core "Smithfield" P4 Extreme Edition with HT enabled.

John, Re -"Any idea what this is?" I believe it to be Smithfield based also. Maybe Intel will ship an EE edition will HT enabled,
(hmm, 4 logical cpus, don't know what Windows OS is going to support that)

Re -"Is this accurate? I thought it was 95W."
Not sure, Pravin pointed that out also. Maybe they upped it to launch with high frequency?

95W is the 90nm Opteron single/dual envelope, IIRC.

Good for AMD for upping the thermal envelope for Toledo. As long as Intel is putting out 130W crap, AMD might as well go up to 110W to enable more speed.
