Yes, it's the [oldchip +1], but really, it's all sorts of new and different. No our coppermines don't actually use copper, but we really thought we were going to... don't be mad... Dave? What are you doing, Dave?....... Daisy... Daisy...."

yeah, the 1.4GHz will be out, but to Dell and Compaq. Curse me if i ever buy from them...
we've had enough of Intel "releasing" processors to two-three vendors, and we're tired of it.
just got my AMD Athlon 1GHz last night.
tell me when Intel can get me a GHz for less than $2000...

The delay in shipping Intel's next processor will double every six months.
