In other words, it becomes tough for a purchasing agent to justify paying much money for 800 MHZ, when 1GHZ systems are already available (just not in the configuration he requires). This move stands a good chance of delaying a significant number of high end business purchasing decisions that would otherwise have been automatic "put in an order for whatever is the fastest business IBM, Compaq, Dell, Gateway, etc." purchases.

Dan,

And it devalues the speed grades between 800 and 1.1 before they are even launched.....it so chicken sh*t stupid, that I am blown away.

I hope it backfires big time.
