From what I've seen, Yamhill has been dead since late '01. The interesting thing is that I've also heard rumors of x86-64 registers in their new chips supposed to be coming out in 2H '03, but that they are disabled (is that the Prescott? I don't pay much attention to Intel). It seems that if that is correct, when AMD's 64 bit solution works, Intel can quickly make the change in their chips and compete head to head on an even playing field. The assumption here is that x86-64 is a hit: while my inner geek is cheering and dancing with goblin-like glee, I don't know that Joe Sixpack will give a flying-funt about 64 bit (especially when the Blue Man group starts painting "32 b1t rul3z" on things with spit-up marshmallows).
