Dan - RE: "This move (Intel price cut) may be as much an attempt to regain lost share as it is one to control the market." I think it is that and also to make room for the new SpeedStep processors. It's amazing how Intel has lost so much market share to K6-2 notebooks, almost reminiscent of late '98 and how the desktop K6-2s took retail by storm. It took Intel a quarter (too late for the big selling quarter) and an AMD screw-up to get its momentum back. Now, K6-2 manufacturing seems to be OK so Intel is left to fight back w/o any assistance.
