<Hard to tell but if you go to a Gateway store, as i reported before, you will find one Celeron 400 for $999 and the next cheapest PC is A P-III-500 unit for $1686. > Wow! that is a gaping hole. And some of this because Intel wouldn't sell the PIII-450s.....

Jim and thread: What may be going on with the GTW deal is that AMD may be trying to make sure that GTW doesn't drop them again when the cumine become more plentiful; that GTW is in it for the long haul. Its interesting that it was a GTW memo that was leaked; that GTW employees keep suggesting that they will have the Athlon; that there is some evidence of the Athlon on GTW website and yet, AMD who stands to gain the most from the deal and should be the most excited is fairly quiet about the whole thing. Now what part of this picture does not make sense? ted
