Oh how i chuckled this morning reading an amd fan boy news posting on the inquirer. They call the article "AMD losses dual core race" yet in the article they rally behind amd and reckon that they will have chips out first even though intel is sampling the chips to partners and amd so far have said jack squat. So either they know somthing we dont, or are being hopefull that there precious amd will do well and not laze around on there lorals as they have done for the past year or so.
With regards to b/w thingy the move to 1066fsb gave little to no real actual performance advantage. But for sure they will want to move the dual core fsb upto 1066 if not more.

It does to me look like intel is going to make it 3 years in a row with major product releases around easter time (P4 C and canterwood two years ago, prescott and 900 series last year etc)
