Scumbria, >>>"My casual observation while visiting Circuit City last night, was that Intel has
very serious competition. A surprisingly large percentage of the systems on sale
had Cyrix or AMD CPUs."<<<

Not to start a peeing contest here, but the three stores that I visited this past weekend had Intel based PCs in the high majority. All three tended to have the non-Intel in one aisle, with a couple Celerons sprinkled in. The next aisle is almost all Celeron 300A and 333. The next is all (100%) Pentium II.

I don't think Fry's, Circuit City and Good Guys people responsible for the store layouts are stupid. They know which company's chips are, were and will continue to lead with 70 - 80% of market share (am I low here?). Why wouldn't they arrange their displays accordingly?
