I still don't expect Conroe until September...
Even if motherboard vendors start getting parts in July, that seems about right for a September product launch. Digitimes is very unreliable as a source.


Ah dude, you are bringing me down.

I was torn between buying a Yonah desktop in a few months
and waiting for Conroe. I might have held out until summer
but no way until the fall. The PC "waterfall" in my house is
experiencing ever increasing demand from the lower levels
for movement. ;-)

September still sounds good. No question that Digitimes pronouncements are doubtful. What happened to this one made in November?

“Sampling Intel’s 65nm dual-core Presler processors has revealed some stability problems, according to unspecified motherboard makers, adding that the problematic CPUs include the 2.8GHz 920 and 3.0GHz 930 series. Launch of end products based on the Intel Presler core may be pushed back from the January 2006 date originally scheduled by system vendors, the makers noted.”

Have not heard nary a word.
