Kash <I think the Athlon 500 and the 550 are essentially gone to the big gulag in the sky.> This would be good news... of course the one option I would like most from Gateway would be >600. It would be very nice to see them offering the 800! However, as noted in the Intel thread recently there is a sweet spot in the middle of the processor speed range where the high volumes time price yield the bulk of the total revenues. The high end provides nicer marginal revenue but is most beneficial as marketing. PT
