    As I said, the new Duron. The article said it will compete with the Celeron. It will have a socket 754 (as well as others) and be use he A64 core with 64-bit disabled.

    I think you're right on that one MM. That's exactly how it appears to be playing out. It appears to be a long term thing too.

    Wonder if we'll be able to make it run 64 bit or if it'll be hard locked... :-/

    If you are only running 32 bit stuff it might be a sweet deal.
