Hi Dave,
I heard some rumours of test results which were not so good.
I cc this to Fred Wickens who may be willing to tell you more (off line
perhaps). You should also ask Andrew Sansum if you can't get hold of
Fred.

Hi,
Does anybody out there have any experience of the Intel Woodcrest Dual
Core CPUs ... any experience at all. We getting quotes for our latest
purchase and they do appear to be coming in at a very competitive price
for their SpecInt performance. I know that they are very new, infact I
am not certain that any have actually been distributed in the UK yet,
but if they have been and have been tested by anybody on this list I
would be grateful for their experiences.
All the best,
david
