Intel to launch Woodcrest, Conroe and Merom in Q3

[Marmion]

Good point on merom availability in built machines, but yonah is still around. I don't see how dc turions will be able to match the power characteristics of a yonah, never mind a merom, without missing the performance lz. I'd be surprised if intel even sold merom chips on mobile platforms in 2006. They would be much better off flooding the desktop and server markets first.

True they should concentrate on getting the Woodcrests and Conroes out, but they need Merom to be out before Vista ships. Also they have the Santa Rosa platform being released in H1 2007, so they still need to get Merom out before the end of 2006.
