<Show me the money PBOY. Dell salespeople are telling everybody that they can order a 733 today, but it will ship after Jan 6th. Explain that, but save your broken record act for Intel press releases.>
Kap, there are two broken records here. One is the Intel press releases and PB's defense of them, that Coppermine is ramping and selling well. The other is mostly from this thread, who say all sort of stuff like Intel is having production problems, Intel can't yield much higher than 750 MHz, etc.
It's only been a month since Coppermine's release. I know everyone wants things to work in Internet time, but one month? Why not wait until January when Intel announces Q4 1999 results? I hope you have some INTC shares before then, because I expect a nice upside surprise.
As for the Dell salespeople, I don't know who you were talking to. I remember calling Gateway three weeks ago, and if I wanted to, I could have obtained a 700 MHz Pentium III a week after order. And let's not forget about Pricewatch, which lists about ten vendors selling the Pentium III 733 MHz (although admittedly they popped up a few weeks after Coppermine launch).
Speaking of which, I don't see the Athlon 750 listed there yet. (That's just an FYI; perhaps we'll see a few vendors two weeks from now.)
