Otellini said something to the effect that desktop conversion to 64 bits would not happen until 2010 because it was unnecessary and we all laughed at it. So you think they'll revive Yamhill to do that?

I think if Yamhill ever did exist, with the introduction of 0.13u Madison it's dead now, and probably forevermore. Yamhill might have been waiting in the wings if Madison was messed up, but with initial scores appearing to come in where intel expected, I believe intel will invest the resources in shrinking the Itanium die, and lowering the manufacturing costs with 0.09u, and 0.065u Processes.
