Tony, The big question with P4 at this point is how well it will scale in MHz. A 20-28 stage pipe must be designed to produce a large jump in MHz, because of the IPC degradation. Time will tell if the Willy team balanced the pipe properly. So how come AMD is the only component company in the universe that is lowering prices (a lot) in this amazing tech product boom? Do they like giving money back to their customers? I think the demand for $1000 CPUs is very low, and AMD is making enough of them that so it is cost effective to sell more at a lower price.
