Intel delays debut of Core i5 platform until early September

Some people are saying that this delay is coming from lack of competition. Currently AMD doesn't have anything near this power at this price point so it sounds like Intel is going to give the market some time to burn up the older boards and let the competition heat up.

Intel delays debut of Core i5 platform until early September: "Intel has decided to postpone the debut of its new mainstream desktop PC platform, Lynnfield processors (tentatively Core i5) and 5-series chipsets, from July as originally scheduled, to early September 2009, according to sources at motherboard makers."
