Goutama,

<Athlon CPU prices are pretty stable across all speed grades.
o Number of K7 mobos listings increased by 12% from the previous week.
o Number of ASUS listings went up to 24 from 16.
o It seems now ASUS is the #2 manufacturer of Athlon motherboards.
o The increase in Athlon 700 listings is not as high as I expected.
o I expected a decrease in the number of Athlon 500 listings,
but instead it went up to 51 from 43. >

Good work!

A few thoughts:

- Your history-keeping will help us see clearly what happens after Dec 12 cuts
- I do not necessarily take the lack of growth in 700MHz vendors too seriously, especially with the rumored "soldout" conditions.
- The 500 MHz vendor growth is somewhat interesting. Looks suspiciously like some OEM dumped 500s in the grey market.
