I don't recall Intel announcing PCIE4 for Comet Lake.

AMD dropped PCIE4 on Renoir.

Intel announce PCIE4 for Ice Lake Server in some slides.

Recent leaks say Tigner Lake Panther NUC has PCIE4.

Does that mean that the Comet Lake-H Mobile CPUs will also be delayed, or are they still coming out in Q1?

Comet Lake is becoming Intel's 737 Max. In real performance and buzz-wise it is behind AMD's 7nm generation. Now that AMD has announced their mobile 7nm line and will most likely deliver it on time given their desktop 7nm record (they don't fab it anyway); and Intel doesn't seem to have ramped up their equivalent 10 nm line. And that is when they are producing it only for mobile, not desktop.

Will the management be fired? After all they are non-tech finance and "management" types whose only purpose is to manage this stuff - technology rollouts, allocating budgets to Comet vs Ice Lake, managing expectations and competition, etc.

Probably not. Even in Boeing's case, the CEO got fired only 2 years after people DIED, and only then because everything the regulators looked at regarding the place was under-engineered. So instead, Intel should lose market share big time.

Industry insider sources inform that Intel's Comet Lake lineup of desktop CPUs will not provide support for the PCIe 4.0 standard as advertised back in late 2019. Intel's CPU shortages combined with the impossibility to adapt circuitry in time have led Intel to completely drop support for the PCIe 4.0 standard on this year's desktop platform.
