Good afternoon! We've delayed writing this section today until we had more information on Intel processors.
Expect severe shortages on Intel processors for the next 8 weeks. This will drive prices up on the OEM market.
According to Intel, there was manufacturing difficulty. There will be 150,000 Pentium II 266 MHz processors
available approximately in mid-August. Everything else will have a delay and we do not have timing. Patience will
be vital.
According to Intel, the first Xeon 400 MHz have shipped. There are 73 pieces available. If you have a
motherboard, then we can get the product for you. We have not tested these products. The price is $1279.00 for
quantity one. "
