Off The Shelf AMD is scheduled on Nov. 1 to cut the pricing on its K6 166MHz chips to keep them at roughly 25 percent below Intel's MMX lineup. The problem, said one system OEM, is that as pricing approaches the $100 and below level, the $25 difference between K6 and Intel's MMX chips becomes considerably less meaningful. According to the source, the K6 166MHz will be reduced to $82 from a current $109; the K6 200MHz will be reduced to $150 from a current $189; and the K6 233MHz will be reduced to $215 from a current $284, according to a source. Pricing is in 1,000-unit quantities. AMD declined to comment on unannounced pricing at press time. Sources at rival companies say 3Com/U.S. Robotics has stopped using the term "x2" in its ads. They hint this is a possible conciliation by the company to the confusion created by two different designs. 3Com vice president of marketing Neil Clemmons, however, said the reports are untrue. The Leap Partnership, the Chicago-based company responsible for the x2 campaign, did not return calls. techweb.com o~~~ O
