According to AMDailyTech, Chipzilla is preparing to push a new breed of processors into the value segment. This time, it's not based on NetBurst anymore, but the product will be based on the upcoming Intel® Core™ uA.The Conroe-L, as it is called by Chipzilla, is slated for release on Q2'07. While it is true that the current value processor today that has been capturing the hearts of many is based on dual core in the incarnation of Intel® Pentium® D 805, the Conroe-L will be single core and targetted to be a follow up to the current Cedar Mill line up, current single core branded under the Intel® Pentium® 4 series.
The selling point, as I see it, versus the Intel® Pentium® D 805, is that the new single core breed is based on the new uA and can show up branded either as an Intel® Pentium® 4 or Intel® Celeron® D. Either way, I am sure that there will be no clash with the Intel® Pentium® D 805, for one reason, it's almost a full year before it'll be released.
Hmm...it's going to be an interesting year, at least, for the FanBoyz...
