i hadn't thought of that

i revise my "tough stuff" to VERY tough stuff

but i somehow doubt that previous P4's will be
written off; but i could be wrong given what
is going on


Once Core 2 starts getting sold in any great numbers who is going to
want to buy the P4's?


S'always possible there's somebody out there who thinks Netburst is just
the ticket... hmm, well maybe not!;-)
