Does anyone know when Intel is going to launch its new processor?

[thehacker]

Hi,
All of you must be knowing that Intel successfully tested its new 80 cores processor in Dec last year or jan. this year. Its clock speed is 1.7 THz and it consumes 65W (Only). And its exactly same in size as that of a simple 65nm processor. So, intel is going to launch it for home as well as corporate users.
Thus,
Does anyone here know when intel is going to launch that processor for home users?

4 more years?

no.....intel said something like this for its older processors too while launching them. but it launches it soon. becoz if other rivals like amd(or intel itself) discovers new technology before that launch then their whole budget for the project will be a wasted..so, i think it will be surely launched in or before 2009...
so i thought somebody around here may be knowing its launch date.

Good Luck... Will you be able to afford one?

sure....intel is not so cray that it will say its processor for home users and will fix it cost 1,000,000 $.
