Good sighting - it reads:

2.8GHz Intel Processor Prescott
512MB DDR400
Intel 875P Motherboard

but the "Prescott" is colored exactly the same as the background color - tricky tricky tricky

I actually didn't notice that until I highlighted the text and pasted it into here ("whoa, where the hell did that prescott come from?!")

Check for yourself.

First Prescott processors not compatible with current motherboards?

Processors | Evan Lieb on Jul 11th, 2003 4:41 AM from AnandTech

After meeting with a manufacturer in Los Angeles yesterday, we were told that the first batch of Prescott processors will not be compatible with any motherboard available on the market today. Before Prescott undergoes a complete socket overhaul in Q2 2004, all Prescott processors will be of the Socket 478 variety, shipments of which will start in early Q4 of this year. But due to a mandatory voltage regulation spec change from VIN 1.0 to VIN 1.5, these Socket 478 Prescott processors will not be compatible with any Socket 478 motherboards. Motherboards based on 865PE and 875P chipsets are among those not compatible with the first Prescotts we learned.

We know of many users that are currently purchasing motherboards based on the assumption that, because Prescotts will be Socket 478 until Q2 next year, current Socket 478 motherboards will be compatible until then. However, this assumption is highly unlikely to be true based on the information we were given on Wednesday. Intel and motherboard manufacturers may be able to find a workaround, but we wouldn't count on it.
Hmmmm

There is some speculation that Prescott will have a deeper pipeline than the Northwood. If true, you would see a chip that doesn't perform as well.

Its the same as what happened when the P4 just came out. After a while it will reach clock speeds that negitate the disadvantages of the longer pipeline.
