<AMD is kicking Intel's butt up and down the Silicon Valley !>

You better believe it! Did you check your favorite site www.pricewatchitdrop.com lately? Think what will happen when Athlon starts shipping in volumes.

PIII-600/550/500 are now at $631/$459/$234/$172 for 1 unit quantities and falling compared to Intel's official 1ku pricing of $669/$487/$251/$183 from 2 days back - Aug 22, 1999.

AT ALL SPEED GRADES INTEL IS UNABLE TO PROP UP THE PRICING - EVEN IN RETAIL. Just think where the OEM prices could be!

Are you sure this is a sign of overwhelming demand for PIIIs?

With these prices, how do you think Intel is going to make this quarter? Do you think Intel is pulling in as much as possible from Q4 and cooking the books with the hope that CuMine will reverse the trend in Q4?

Wakeup! Your love for Intel is making you blind to reality!
