Re: 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.

Anandtech says E2180 (2.0GHz) in Q4.

Also, E4600 (2.4GHz) in Q4. Both of these are *really* gonna hurt.

I expect the E2180 to score about a 109 in the performance index (equivalent to a 4800+). The E4600 should fall about 6% short of the E6600, which still beats the 6000+. :-)
