Intel misses Pentium 4 goals in 2003

"In fact, Intel hit the glass ceiling at 3.20GHz during 2004, and while distributors may have SKUs for Pentium 4Es, sort of Prescotts, ready for the new year, these chips don't seem to be quite everything Intel had hoped for.
Is a Pentium 4 produced at 90 nanometres a full blown Prescott? Not unless Mr Prescott has been re-defined. "

Isn't Mr. Prescot running at something like 50C idle?

hmmm Intel made the mistake of contributing to the entity known as Microsoft

Microsoft owns Intel now .. AMD no one owns

An old joke from George Carlin ...
