Tony - Re: 'I said to Paul that I thought Mendocino was important to
stop the snickering, etc. going on about Celery, etc., that Intel needed a
full-strength Celeron. He agreed, although he said that the first Celeron,
@ 266 MHz and no L2 cache was ~ 10% faster than PMMX 233..."

I think Intel did themselves an injustice by putting out a product that
encouraged such snickering.

Intel's success has been due in part to excellent marketing and PR snafus
go a long way to NEGATE good marketing."

Well, well, well. Confession IS good for the soul, now isn't it?

Jim

Paul".

I'm confused by that statement.
Did marketing develop the product spec for Celeron, or did PR?
