Dissecting that comment we can assume that Broadwell will likely be made available in September or October of this year

Damn americans and their stupid time measurements.

Yeah, tell me about it. I thought that oh great we have summer holiday coming up in a few weeks! And then I was like, oh they meant xmas holiday......

I know it would have not made any sense to have haswell refresh and broadwell at the same time, but as the timeframe was "before the holidays" I was thinking of the next holiday we have.

First I do agree with you and I am sorry for the misconception, but it's safe to assume that since Intel is a U.S. company that they will be going by U.S. holidays.

 

Again, I think they should have said a straight time frame rather than "holiday season", but they are probably trying to give themselves a bit of leeway on this if they have to delay it a bit.

Yes, now I totally understand why they would give themselves a "loose" timeframe.

If you guys read the original Intel message, there is no mention of these being LGA chips. Even if they are, there is no mention of them being available to be bought individually. The latest VR-zone leak suggests LGA broadwell chips would be available no earlier than Week 18-22 of 2015.

I am almost willing to bet the ones coming out this Dec will be mobile chips only.
