Goodbye Pentium and Celeron! The brands have been used on the market for over a quarter of a century, that’s not bad for a technology product.
They should have either boosted the Pentium brand by not selling low-range CPUs under that name or sunset the name much earlier. Pentium doesn’t end on a high note.
And Celeron was always crap, that’s the hill I’ll die on. Always underpowered, never the budget choice IMO.
It turns out that if you use a bunch of random numbers and a letter or two, you don’t need to fuck around with product line names. It’s much easier to confuse people into thinking every chip is flagship and you can double the price and not worry about tarnishing a product name.
Penteleron inbound.
