No one knows yet, Jay.
But you should remember that the Canterdale boards and Northwood C processors are the last evolutionary step in the .013 micron and DDR process. Prescott is a major overhaul. It is going to move to .009 micron and the boards you can buy for it will launch DDR-2 and some other neat stuff.
I think its socket format is going to become less of an issue the closer we get to its launch date. There are going to be enough good reasons to replace the board, cpu and memory that I don't think many people will be worried about carrying over their existing stuff.

Intel has hinted that they will use the same socket at 1st...
but also hinted they may not use it at all....
And I along with MANY other people are not willing to replace our Motherboards, and RAM every 6 months. So as you all get hyped up about the new chipsets, If it is only going to last me 6-8 months, looks like i dont have a good enough reason to upgrade yet.....
And the BX lives on.

Socket T will not be employed until 2004 on the Prescotts.

The first batches of Prescotts will be S478. At least thats the rumor at the moment.
Abit canterwood benchmarks! Looks great!
