Intel has shipped 6, 000 prototype Pentium 4 PCs to developers, who are busy developing applications, peripherals and other products that will work with Pentium 4 systems, he said.
Other features that should boost the performance of the Pentium 4 include a 400MHz system bus, which is about three times faster than the bus on the Pentium III.
It showed a prototype PC here that sported a 1.5GHz processor, followed by the technology demonstration, in which a Pentium 4 was ratcheted up to 2002MHz, or slightly over 2GHz.
Inside there's an Intel (nasdaq: INTC - news - people )-made Pentium 4 processor, the clock speed of which hasn't yet been revealed--though HP says it will be faster than 2 gigahertz.
Fearing a botched launch for Pentium 4 because of insufficient supplies of RDRAM, Intel has conceded in recent weeks that it will use other memory technologies like conventional SDRAM and possibly DDR as a memory option with Pentium 4.
