Kash - Re: "it is interesting to note that earlier you were predicting that AMD could not build enough 400's and now you're conclusion is that they are building too many!!! " Who says they built too many? The reality is that they HAVEN'T SOLD ENOUGH ! Re: "Also the price collapse in the Celerys (from $150 list to $85 street prices)which occured a few weeks ago after you were telling everyone that INTEL was sold out for the 4Q. We haven't heard from you concerning why Intel was forced to do this???" Intel dropped the prices on the 300 and 333 MHz parts because they are already shipping 366 MHz Socket 370 and Slot 1 parts. whatisnew.com Since 400 MHz Celerons are coming in just 6 more days, Intel dropped the existing prices, as noted, to make sure that the "high end" Celerons would be low enough in price to make it attractive to OEM's so as to keep them from buying 400 MHz K6-2's. It would appear that Intel's strategy is working perfectly. Paul
