this is just evolution surely.

My AM2 platform is gonna be about as good as a plate of cold chips once AM2+ and even AM3 come into play. Intel users have been able to swap and change mobo and CPU on the 775 platform for AGES - about time it got updated to exclude the chaff (netburst/celeron D)

Would make more sense as "...the Pentium Netburst CPU range by not officially certifying..."

Actually I think this is a good move by Intel - the sooner they drop the old chips and move C2D chips into all ranges the better.

As for forcing processor upgrades I suspect most people upgrading to Bearlake will be buying with a core 2 anyway. Celeryon seems a waste on Bearlake.

Cheers, I've completely re-written the tag line. I brain dumped into it and forgot to edit it when the article was being changed.

not certified doesn't mean it won't work.. I mean intell never certified the IBM586 chips that ran at 120mhz on an intell mobo in the 486 days and they still worked

These motherboards/chipsets going to be suporting the new 45nm tech CPU's then?

Yup. 1333FSB and 45nm.
