Doug, Re: P4 mobile chips aren't going away anytime soon.
With the solid growth of Centrino, I think there will be a time when Mobile Pentium 4 is no longer needed. I'm guessing this will probably happen by this time next year. Pentium M is a smaller die, besides, and it allows for a much less expensive cooling solution, even in DTR notebooks. If it's cheaper for Intel and offers near equivalent performance, then it just makes sense to transition.
Re: And what's with "modelhurts" and the like? You sound like subzero.
I've never been a fan of model numbers, but I suppose a name like modelhurts is a bit droll. No worse than Preschot, however.
