Intel have hit the panic button.
Product designs being delayed, changed or thrown out because of you can't deliver on promises is nothing to shout about. The truth is that Intel is struggling to be competitive against AMD. Even Dell are having a tough time to release a product based on Paxville (dual-core Xeon 90nm) because of power supply and VRM's problems. Intel wanted 65nm for dual-core Xeon to increase performance while keeping power below current designs. Intel couldn't wait as demand shifted to AMD. Intel release the hot running, low performing Paxville and Dell and other customers have had very little time to prepare (Dell products delayed). Low performance 2.8GHz vs 3.2GHz of Pentium-D, also get's beaten by AMD's third from top 2GHz dual-core Opteron 270 which uses half the power as Paxville. I would not use the words 'Intel' and 'boost performance' in the same sentence. Intel are not living up to expectations and are left to using plan B's which do less than plan A's.

I agree with the posts.
I dont understand whats happening with all sites always anouncing new intel producs (almost 2 years to come), saying they are better (and they are, but not at AMD levels).
Looks like intel is really bad, because all these press releases every day anouncing this and that, but where is it?
