chipguy, I don't have any opinion on this Prescott speed myself. The article is quite educated and it says that Prescott will be faster on some apps, but will run head-to-head with Northwood on most apps. What do you think?

... longer pipeline with larger branch-mispredict penalty, higher L2 cache latency...

Maybe it's about a wash on most apps?
