According to the May 2005 issue of 'Maximum PC', the new Pentium line
includes the Pentium D and the Pentium Extreme Edition (the '4' disappears),
both lines will be dual core. Intel says that single-core computing will
continue beyond at least 2006, without revealing details about the future of
the Pentium 4.

The first Pentium D CPU's will be based on the Prescott 90 nm core, but will
be dual core on one chip, each core having 1MB L2 cache, no hyper-threading,
an 800 MHz FSB, 64-bit support, NX support, and a 3.2 GHz CPU speed. The
die will be 260 square mm with 230 million transistors. The Pentium Extreme
Edition is differentiated by having hyper-threading on both cores.

So sayeth 'Maximum PC'.
