Interesting stuff. Now if they can only pair it with a good desktop chipset, maybe add 1 more meg of cache, and ramp up the clock speeds, it will be a real killer.

by looking at the poll it looks like the pentium numbered series is going to fall of the edge. with the alviso line it looks like the 64bit processing might be lacking and having to make a jump to go past a COOLER CPU .. what are the oc capabilities of the new chip as to heat .. isnt that what this is all about.. if you can oc that chip the temps would be the main factor right.. with less the price tag as the "new for 6 months" cpu's i think that would be a good way to go who knows im just a clown here living in a big top hohumho oh yea it seems to me that i probaly dont know what im talking about
