Re: Maybe by Intel standards AMD has never shipped anything in volume.

Perspective is everything :-)

Nevertheless, given the million per week etc., aren't you just a little surprised that, to this day, there hasn't been one 1GHZ P3 on pricewatch from any one of the hundreds or thousands of venders that list there?

(I know that now you or Paul will call a buddy and one listing will appear tomorrow, and remain available for a few days, and it will be all my fault)

Elmer - RE: "Dan you know that PriceWatch is the standard of measure for retail availability but you also know that Intel does not sell it's highend processors primarily into that market."

With that statement in mind and if the 1GHz PIII was REALLY shipping in volume, one would assume OEMs would offer the 1GHz PIII as an option in their commercial PCs. After all, this seems logical since Intel gets much of its business this way, right?

Then why is is that Dell only offers up to 933MHz in their business PC (Optiplex) line?

"I guess it depends on how you define volume"

I agree with you on this.

1GHz PIII - STILL a low-volume product.
