Re: "I really don't know why this is so hard to understand for the AMD crowd." Because it happens all the time with a very different outcome! E.g. Go to your supermarket: President's Chice cola (generic brand): $0.89 for a 2 liter bottle. Coca Cola (national brand): $1.19. Price difference: 34% Coca Cola (1) tastes better and (2) has an established brand. You don't see Coke out there slashing its prices to drive President's Choice out of the market. Intel has (1) a better performing chip (Celeron vs. K6) and (2) an established brand. SO WHAT IS INTEL AFRAID OF? Kevin
