Dan3 - You asked "What do you think Intel is getting for the 1GHZ mobile PIII? As much as $150? Doesn't seem likely..." Why doesn't that seem likely? Is $150 too much ? According to this article, Intel's price for this product is quite a bit higher than $150 - in fact - it is $722. Is $722 a good price for this chip? soozieque March 16, 2001 Intel to Introduce Chip Running At 1 Gigahertz for Notebook PCs By Molly Williams Staff Reporter of The Wall Street Journal Intel Corp. on Monday will introduce a new microprocessor chip for laptop computers, its first mobile processor to operate at a speed of 1 gigahertz. The new Pentium III 1 GHz uses a technology called SpeedStep, which is designed to run faster when power saving isn't an issue and slow down the processor when the user wants to extend the time it runs on batteries. The Pentium III 1 GHz runs at 700 megahertz in the battery-optimized mode and will cost $722 when bought in lots of 1,000 units. Intel is also introducing two other mobile processors. Another new Pentium III operates at 900 megahertz and costs $562. A new Celeron, for lower-cost laptop machines, runs at 750 megahertz and is priced at $170. Prior to these products begin launched, the fastest Pentium III mobile chip was an 850-megahertz version and the fastest Celeron mobile ran at 700 megahertz. Computer makers including Dell Computer Corp., Gateway Inc., International Business Machines Corp. and Hewlett-Packard Co. are expected to start selling systems using the new chips Monday.

What do you think Intel is getting for the 1GHZ mobile PIII? As much as $150? Doesn't seem likely... Or.... You put Cheap Components In A Laptop, You Get a Cheap Price. Let's Compare Your "ProStar" With Other Available Pentium 1GHZ Laptops From Sunday's Newspaper Fliers: ProStar: 128MB Ram 13.3" Display 10.0 GB HD 24X CDROM $1499 HP Pavilion: 256MB Ram 15.1" Display 20GB HD 8X DVD ROM Drive $2699 Compaq Presario: 128MB Ram 15.1" Display 20GB HD 8X DVD ROM Drive $1949 Put a smaller screen, less RAM, a smaller HD, and a CDROM instead of a DVD, and Voila, you've got a cheap laptop, not a cheap processor.
