Power does look good,
and it will look even better once the G-0 stepping gets into the quad core parts... I actually thought it already had, but not in the units reviewed.
Also, I just received a PCN for the Allendale conversion to the M-0 stepping, which I assume is the G-0 equivalent with 2M cache. M-0 conversion is scheduled for late July.
I think once Penryn starts shipping they will ratchet up the frequency of the 21xx pentium and 4xx celeron parts, which is really gonna hurt.
