ExtremeTech has put up a news story on the latest Pentium 4 processor
While numerous OEMs have supported the launch of Intel's new hyperthreading-enabled 3.06-GHz Pentium 4, whether or not the feature will be useful remains a subject of debate.
OEMs like Dell and Gateway appear poised to highlight the technology's advantages in advertisements and other promotions. But interestingly, one "enthusiast" OEM-who might have been thought as a strong backer of any new technology-characterized the improvement as only a slight one.

Vendors are readying products to support RDMA over TCP/IP, a fledgling networking technology wending its way through standards bodies promising faster data transfers with less processor power.
Remote direct memory addressing over IP lets hardware devices share data directly among their respective memory chips, easing CPUs' processing burden. Specifically, information being passed does not require CPU processing. The process is similar to that of the Virtual Interface and InfiniBand technologies-which also use remote addressing. But this new wave of RDMA takes remote addressing over IP, which is cheaper and less complex, developers said.

Flat panels have gotten bigger and cheaper (notwithstanding the $1,000-plus, 19-inch Princeton LCD we recently reviewed) and they're beginning to pop up like dandelions on desktops everywhere," Ulanoff wrote. "Are you seeing the same thing? Is your company replacing old CRTs with LCDs? Let's try to predict the date that we will officially declare the CRT deceased."Read more
