re: it's a specialty product that Intel is selling only to Apple. You can buy one today, isn't that enough to prove it exists?

Creating more strawmen again, typical for you. I never claimed it didn't exist. I say it has shipped in extremely low quantities, with a power dissipation greater than 150 watts. Prove otherwise.

Dear Wbmw:

Sorry

Your session has timed out after a period of inactivity.



Is what I get when I went to your link.

You also forgot that these may be overclocked parts. Companies have done this before with both Intel and AMD. Taking the heatsink off may reveal these as ES, engineering samples with unlocked multipliers. Or they can simply push the FSB to 1500MHz like most overclockers do, turning 2.67GHz Clovertowns (8x multiplier) into 3GHz ones (1500MHz / 4 = 375MHz * 8 = 3GHz).
