From The Register:

Pentium 4 pricing revealed
By: Mike Magee
Posted: 10/07/2000 at 16:27 GMT

Sources close to Intel's plans have now revealed the prices for the first two flavours of the up-and-coming Pentium 4, formerly codenamed Willamette.

The Pentium 4 running at 1.3GHz will cost $895 when it debuts in September, with its 1.4GHz brother debuting at $795.

But Intel will attempt to start its familiar pricing scheme only two months later in November this year, with the 1.3GHz costing $795 and the 1.4GHz $625.

Those prices will be for units of 1,000 but indicate further speeds and a typical Intel price curve over the months to come.

Intel, as expected, has now placed the Almador family of microprocessors on its roadmap, and has started talking about the Pentium III running at .13µ.

And the company, the same sources reveal, will not licence the Pentium 4 buses to other companies, implying that the chipsets will stay firmly in Chipzilla mitts.

The system price with Rambus RIMMs and an Intel motherboard based on the Tehama chipset is expected to be high. We shall have more details later this week. ®

Volume dried right up - no one else wants to sell at this level but it seems like there is a reluctance to buy AMD up more than $4 a day.

Still, I am pretty happy to go up at just $4 a day if that is what it takes :^)
