When will they make a cork big enough to shove down people's throats and stop them from talking?

One of those questions we'll never know...

Ask them, look at their website for the news, I'm sure it will tell you when things are gonna be released...

Im not sure of exact dates but i know that very soon Intel are bringing out the Penitum 4 3.33 HT chip and will be bringing out the Pentium 4 prescott by the end of the year (800mhz fsb among other cool upgrades).

Er yes. FSB speed isn't related directly to processor speed.

However if you want faster than a 3.06ghz, you can buy an XP1700 JIUHB from certain stores, which should overclock to AT LEAST 2.4ghz on standard air, 1.75vcore. Intel won't beat that for a LONG time.

turbo do you have any benchmarks of that, it still won't beat the 3.06 but it will be close and the 3.06 has the added advantage of HT if you were to use it.

As you can see my 2.07ghz Athlon is only just beaten by the 2.8ghz P4. I'm not sure if that is one with HT, what is SMT?

Who cares?? The most important thing about that processor is the new Intel "Hyper-threading". We now need to see many, many more programs written to support different processes which cn be executed simultaneously on a single desktop PC, this could be a technology which brings games on leaps and bounds, in PCs at least, the PS2 games console already has a split processor sort of set-up.
