Intel will demonstrate the first 0.13-micron Pentium 4 processors at the upcoming Comdex computer industry trade show in Las Vegas, according to sources familiar with the chip maker's plans.
Intel will also introduce a new category of 0.13-micron Pentium III chips with an "S" designation, standing for "server" chip. Intel will demonstrate the new Pentium III-S chips running in ultra-dense server racks known as server blades.
The 0.13-micron Pentium 4 lays the groundwork for the Pentium 4 chip family to attain speeds as high as 3 GHz by the end of next year. Originally scheduled for launch in December, Intel recently moved the debut of the 0.13-micron Pentium 4 chip back to January, sources said.
3ghz eh? Will it beat the Fastest Athlon? or is it still gonna be like before?

these chips arent for gaming they are server chips designed to handle multiple taskings very well and reliably which AMD doesnt do. they are not going to be aimed at the typical or even atypical desktop consumer.

I find it hilarious that intel is producing more P3 chips as their 'performance' chips. I wonder why they aren't make P4 performance chips?
Oh wait. I forgot. Oxymoron.

Anyway, this is all just classic intel paper launch. You can measure the heat they feel by how big the numbers are in their paper releases, and how often they make paper releases.
