OEM's are probably pissed now. Not only is INTEL not supporting the P III with the promised big marketing splash, but now the OEM's are stuck with a ton of product that nobody wants and is even subject to a boycott. And, it is the highest consumer priced chip in the market. Oops! GO AMD!!!! BT

I wonder how many of the "ID enabled" Pentium IIIs that Intel has shipped. The fact that they have pulled their Super Bowl add and are under pressure from Arizona and privacy groups indicates that Intel has pulled the proverbial "boner" on this one. Intel stock under pressure today is indicative of the ID problem. Intel needs to can the idea immediately but it seems they are waffling like they did with the Pentium FDIV problem. Jim
