Desktrino

IE: are they gonna make the CPU used in Centrino mobile technology (The Pentium M) into a desktop chip, possibly using a dual core version.?

According to H, Intel, and even AMD, the answer is yes in the form of Presler (Dual core) or Cedar Mill (Single core).

 
Isn't Presler the planned successor for Smithfield?
I was under the impression it was a twin-die 2MB L2 Netburst chip?
 
All I can say that there is a very good chance you'll get just that, a dual core Pentium-m based CPU for desktops..

I think that Yonah is the dual core version of the Pentium M, which will come out at the end of this year (?). I am also pretty sure that Presler is netburst based.

This is speculation, but I think there will be a version of Yonah for the desktop, although that would make a mess of Intel's socket situation, as they would have more than 2 different sockets for the netburst chips and 2 for the pentium M-derived chips.
 
Cedar Mill and Presler are netburst based, Yonah is the dual core pentium M..but I think there will be other derivitaves of the Yonah..
 
Something may be coming soon
No Intel representative would confirm or deny that the Merom and Conroe are, or are not, completely different products from the NetBurst and the P6 architectures. Still, a pure dual-core NetBurst chip would not be mentioned separately, while no P6 chip could employ the mentioned feature-set without very serious design changes.

Thanks for the link and very cool info guys. Looks like Presler will be a shrunken Prescott relative. And the generation after Yonah will be Merom And Conroe for the desktop and laptop respectively? Looks like I was off by one gen. Not to shabby 🙂
