Jay Mohr is a comedian, what does he know about computers?

I can easily forecast speeds because the bloomfield sample they used is 2.4GHz and the Core i7 975 uses a bloomfield core. Also it would be really strange for Intel not have at least one of their flagship processors not be clocked over 3Ghz.

Every time Intel or AMD have launched processors with more cores, the launch speeds have been lower than the flagship.

Pentium D launched at 3.2GHz when Pentium 4 was at 3.8GHz
Core 2 Quad launched at 2.66GHz when Core 2 Duo launched at 3.0GHz
AMD's 6-core Istanbul launched at 2.6GHz when their 4-core Shanghai was at 3.1GHz

I'll make a bet with you that the first Gulftowns will launch at 3.0GHz or under.

how long did it take Intel to release the Core i7 965 and the Core i7 940.

when was both processors released? Was the 940 released before the 965? was there that big of a gap between releases? or were they released the same day?

Same day.
