PIII 1.13 GHz embarrassment continues
Word out of theRegister has Intel confirming the delay of the PIII-1.13GHz re-release ... back to Q2 2001. As a result t-Reg speculates that this may indeed never happen, given that the succeeding P4 should be cranking around 1.7GHz at that point. Assuming Intel stuck in the Q2 timeframe, this speculation seems quite reasonable, as even AMD's low-cost Duron will probably faster next year Q2. Hopefully Intel keeps it real and all, as it would be sad to see AMD raise those lovely prices, or decelerate the pace to 2GHz.
