Go up one level in this thread

It's not that simple. In every case there is complex reasons for any decision.
While it is true that the bottom line is money. In this case the P4 design is
having trouble scaling in frequency. They designed it for speed and hoped that
the much older Athlon design would not scale as it has done. And Intel sees the
x86 as a dead end. The research and design costs would be prohibitive if they
launched a crash program. Better to wait on AMD and try a broad range of
possible improvements.
