Haven't seen ads for either Intel or AMD in the local papers for the 850-1000 MHz computers. The Costco item is interesting but remember that retail is AMDs only outlet, and I've heard that business is 80% of the PC market. By the way, I shop in Costco, and I have seen AMD and Intel PCs on the racks. Not the most likely place I'd guess for civilians to shop for the highest end PCs. I have bought an epson printer there, but the PC sales look pretty quiet there and I check every time I go. I might go there for a low end, bottom of the price chain PC, but it would be pretty surprising to say great per store sales on the highest end. Ah, but I don't want to reason from a sample of one, so congrats to AMD for nailing the bargain hunting, price conscious COSTCO account. Regards, Burt
