But it's still up for vendors to provide BIOS upgrades for older mobos, like the Phenom compability thing....

For me, it's another serious gamble for Intel. I think there's still this small chance, they'll have the same problems as AMD's processors due to the new stuff they'll all be pulling in this new processor.

Or speed per mhz will improve but the current Core2Duo can still match their speed. (Due to their extreme overclocking potential.) If this happens, it's gonna be a hard time for Intel to sell it.
