This will be awesome

"more than 3.3 GHz for high-end desktop computers and more than 2.5 GHz on the notebook side"

Rock on Intel!
 
I have mixed feelings, after basically just building a quad-core system. Looks great, having higher clock speeds. I should've waited!
 
Read those when I got into work today... I am excited, because my fiancee just started school today, so no hardware purchases for me for the next 16 months... :( . I guess I will just wait for 45nm to upgrade. :D
