Paul,

Have you checked www.pricewatchitdrop.com lately?

Intel's *1 Ku* pricing from 9/12 for the 600/550/500/450 speed grades are (http://www.intel.com/intel/finance/pricelist/): $615/$423/$251/$183
and the respective www.pricewatchitdrop.com * 1 unit* prices are $603/$409/$228/$170.

Is it that Intel did some unannounced cost reductions since 9/12 and decided to pass on the savings to the customers or do you think this has anything to do with a newer speed grade on Athlon? Time for another price cut?

Chuck

RE <<<Now, BEFORE these stocks went up, DID YOU predict that they would go up as much as they did ?

No !>>>

Yes...not with pinpoint accuracy but within 5 to 10 pts generally.

<<<Otherwise you would have bought them !

But you DIDN'T !>>>

Yes, I did buy them and they are still in my portfolio and they continue to go up.

<<<The point is, even a COMPLETE idiot can see what stocks have ALREADY GONE UP a certain amount.>>>

Yes, what's your point? Actually, you do not need to respond.
I want you to know that I was posting re this issue in a serious vein and not trying to argue or fence with you. You have a different perspective than what I expected.
