Paul - RE: "So...Intel lowers its prices and in so doing, it screws the consumers.

You care to explain that one?"

I didn't see a reply to Tench, who Originally brought up that arguement. I guess you understand the same concept only when you want to. Or did you not reply to him because of that short term memory lapse you seem to have whenever you want to?

I shall restate my, err Tench's point. TRY to remember it this time.

My original post was about Intel screwing the customer by releasing a new product, and then coming out with a better version of that product only a few months after. (Was that the first time you grasped what was being told? Is your memory refreshed yet?)

Tench replied saying:

"And AMD screwed buyers of the K6-2 400 by lowering its price from $250 to $150 in the space of a few months, making those who bought one of the first K6-2 400 CPU's feel shafted, right?"

In reality, I am explaining Tench's point to you, which you understood when you read, but forgot when I wrote it. Actually, since you actually DO understand the point, I don't see a need to re-explain myself. Is that a voluntary short term memory lapse I sense going into effect again?
