Who would have thunk it at the beginning of the year?

Until we see some official infos it's all a little bit speculative ... we'll just have to wait and see what happens, anyway even if Intel will launch Penryn parts in Q3 it will surely be just to parade them, nothing in real volumes ...

isnt penryn this mobile version of wolfdale & yorkfield

Seems in the blink of an eye - namely the last four or so years - there has been a convergence of enterprise/desktop - technology/solutions/performance. Desktop solutions from both AMD and Intel these days are simply Phenom-n-al (pun intended). . .

And, more specifically, both AMD and Intel used their processor line that was doing the best for them for the purposes of convergence... for AMD, it was their server processor (Sledgehammer at the time), and for Intel it was the mobile processor (Banias, or, depending on how you look at it, a revisiting of Tualatin).
