Maybe they just don't get any that slow anymore?

Sure. Would be surprized if the bar would not be raised.
Entry level for Performance Segment in Q1 going forward @ 2,8, yes. Prescotts to be released for it. Thats what I was saying.

Where do you see the manufacturing sweetspot for Northwood (clockwise) currently (wafer-outs)?

Elmer, now the P4 is positioned against A64 and Athlon against Celeron. The slowest A64 is 3000. Maybe Intel wants to keep the 2.6 P4 speedgrade, but they just can't. Today street price for P4 2.8/533 is $170, by the time Prescott is introduced it will slide to $160. There is no space below.
