We're actually thinking the financial stocks will do better this year and things like that rather than looking for big runups in oil and commodity type stocks. >> How are you allocating new money to the market right now? >> Well, at moment, it's a pretty toug market. There is still some good technology sectors. Especially the chips, the semiconductor sector. Advanced micro devices , for example, never even went down in that selloff.

Scot, Some motherboard makers are actually quoted as saying that they will start mass production and shipment of Socket-A motherboards as early as the end of this month. Perhaps this will alleviate some of the infrastructure concerns expressed recently on the thread. Scumbria

Is it possible that Intel is delaying the Celeron II at higher clock speeds to make core improvements? Right after benchmarks came out showing that the 600 MHz Celeron was a real loser, Intel said it would be a couple months (June?) before they were available. Could they be adding more cache so that AMD's "more total cache than Celeron" claim for the Duron becomes false? Could they be tweaking the L2 cache interface to reduce the latency? Maybe they re-thought the 66 MHz bus and will now release it with 100 MHz bus? comments? Petz
