Me:<But the revenue per chip will go down by $100 to $150.>

Tenchusatsu reply: I fail to see the logic behind this statement. Intel's ASP is a combination of all the markets, including desktop, mobile, value, and server/workstation. A drop in ASP from $250 to $150 would be much too drastic even for paranoid Intel.

I did not say that Intel's blended ASP would drop by $100, but based on a $180 price cut on the PIII-500, the blended ASP of the PIII line will drop at least $100.

So, even if Intel could cut $50 from the manufacturing costs of the PIII by using on-die cache and Socket 370, they will still come out behind.
