Quoting Omega65
Intel's next desktop CPU is a Pentium M/Dothan descendant codenamed "Merom" I believe. I would expect that this chip would be fully 64bit capapble. It's not due until 2006
Interesting.
I heard something about a 32bit desktop P-M moved forward to 2005.
The original plan was to introduce it in 2006, according to various news sources.
This change of plans should be one of the main reasons why they scrapped the Tejas.
Well that and the fact that PresHot is hotter than a supernova.
