MB, re: "Pigs are Flying"
Amazing how long it takes to get in tune sometimes.
Back in June 1997 I posted on the Intel thread that I saw Intel entering a new era. I predicted PC ASP's would start to come down, and in fact start crashing over the next few years. I believed this was an irreversible trend.
I saw PII, (PIII now), entering into a niche market. (High end PC's). It wasn't many months later that Intel announced Celeron.
In later posts I predicted that the price of mHz would begin to decline. That as Intel moved up the speed curve entry prices for new chips would come down. I speculated that CPU performance was outpacing the requirements of the applications. I also felt Intel should start spending some of their megabucks on developing new applications that required the increasing power of their products.
This, of course, was met by total derision on the thread.
Wonder what they think now?
