It wanted to get the functionality out in time for the Pro launch, so spent the time, money and engineers to push its version out the door first. There will be an AMD variant and a non-dual core one to follow, so take off the tin foil helmets, the CIA is out to get you, but tin foil won't help. There, I said it.
There are many other parts to Pro. It is going to be the desktop version of Centrino and VIIV, but not as user antagonistic and broken as the latter platform. It will also not be nearly as ambitious and far reaching, and because of this, will fall into the 'good thing' category.
