San Francisco - Intel announces that they will delay introduction of the Pentium 4 running at four gigahertz until the first quarter of 2005.

Reuters is reporting that Intel informed its customers that the Pentium 4 running four gigahertz will not be available until first quarter 2005. This is just another in a string of delays for Intel processors.

"We're committed to putting our execution back on track in a way that makes the company even stronger," Anderson said. She declined to give a reason for the delay, other than to say that Intel wanted to be able to provide adequate volumes of the product to customers.
