Ephud:

There are lots of examples where Intel scheduled something and it never happened. 10GHz P4, Tejas and 4GHz P4 are examples. There are also examples where the roadmap updated and things moved around. And there have been pushouts this year as well.

One example is that Intel lauched a T7800 2.6GHz Merom in Q3 and there hasn't been one notebook with it (or even the earlier X7800).

Another is PCRAM (phase change RAM was supposed to sample now. Samsung has one sampling, but Intel is nowhere to be found.

And even pull ins are schedule changes.

But here is a direct quote of a roadmap push out:

So Intel did back off schedules over the past year.

Thus my contentions were correct and you and the other Intel boosters have to eat crow. Intel has no scheduling advantage or delivery advantage wrt AMD. Myth again BUSTED!
