This will be great for SFF, XPC's and the like ! If they manage to incorporate CT/AMD64 in it quickly enough, I'll most likely get one for a HTPC.

There is a flip side to this story however; it doesnt seem like intel will reduce heat output on prescott or future netburst cores dramatically, otherwise there would be little use for this chip as a desktop part.

Netburst is bust, bring on dothan !

Dothan will probably be faster than Banias clock-for-clock!

Let Dothan come!!! It's no prescott. ***cough***
