A faithful Intel watcher has pointed out to us that the company has just placed a URL on its site which seems to indicate Geyserville technology has slipped by a whole quarter of a year, in one day. This is the offending URL (http://www.intel.com/tech/work/initiatives/roadmap.htm) Yesterday, we reported that Geyserville was likely to arrive in Q1 of the year 2000, quoting a source so close to Intel that he or she might very well work for the chip giant. (Story: Geyserville delayed until post-Ma Shipton period (http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/archive/6066.html)) Our feeling about the whole affair is that Intel is re-jigging its entire roadmap in order to bowl a googly (UK cricket term) and knock off AMD's Athlon bails. Never mind What the Hell...is Geyserville (http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/archive/5536.html). When the Hell...is Geyserville? ®
