CNET lists Pentium III 800 MHz as the most popular product to buy, while Athlon 800 MHz is #6.

Intel happens to also make 5 times as many processors.

But the P3 costs $200 on CNET, while Athlon costs $153.

That's a wrong way to look at it. 800 MHz Athlon is basically a discontinued product. Just about all of the current yield is now in 950 MHz to 1.2 GHz range. Notice Gateway site, AMD's biggest customer. They no longer sell anything under 950 MHz (from AMD).

But for Intel, 800 MHz is still very much a mainstream product. You may find it interesting that AMD Athon line has approximately the same ASP as Intel's blended ASP (from Celeron to $2,000 Xeon). What's dragging AMD's ASPs down is the K6 line (< $40) and Duron line, which is lacking infrastructure (probably in $65 range).
