Intel's Q4 was not so great in terms of market share given up to AMD, and that erosion will continue unless Intel takes steps to counteract it. However, I think that they will see AMD is now too strong to be crushed with a price war. These latest measures are a reasonable response from Intel to contain AMD's growth and make some time to push through their plans for diversification into other areas(networking, investments etc).

Maybe Intel should consider manufacturing fewer processors and selling them at a higher price. It worked great in Q4.

Scumbria, that's way too logical. It doesn't fill their need for machismo....kill the b*stards!!!

Now that makes perfectly good sense to them!!

Scumbria, I'm a little surprised that inHel didn't cut Celeron prices to $40 rather than PeeWeeIII mobile prices to $150. After all, their Celeron chips are all 0.25u chips which will end production soon anyway.

I'm beginning to wonder whether the CuMine 128K cache chip, which is supposed to replace the Celeron, is delayed.
