Cirruslvr, <To spoil part of it for you, the 667MHzPIII Xeon w/256KB on chip L2 cache running on a 133MHz bus will cost $27 more than the 500MHz PIII Xeon w/512K cache running on the 100Mz bus.> This information seems a little dated. Intel may drop Xeon prices faster than anyone expects, to help retain some of the design wins it has in the server market. It is already pretty clear where the Celeron ASPs are going to be for the quarter. What remains is the PIII. I would estimate the 450/500/550/600 mix to be roughly 0.3/0.3/0.2/0.1. And PIII-500 is forecasted to go down to $250 or less in a few weeks. Unless Intel moves on price, they increase their chances of losing the high MHz designs. So, we may be looking at an accelerated fall on PIII prices (including Xeon). Chuck
