Dan, <OTOH, it did force Intel to cut the net OEM price of each of the several million Coppermine and Foster (P4 server) chips in the Xeon family that will be sold this year from what was $1,000 to $3,000 to what now is $300 to $1,000.> Whatever. None of those chips you mentioned are of the large-cache variety, and I can't remember any small-cache P3 or P4 chip which ever sold for more than $1000 at any point in time. Intel's current large-cache processors are Cascades (which is still selling at a top price of $2K, the same as back when it was introduced a year ago) and Itanium (top price of over $4K and not likely to go down until McKinley is released). The prices of these processors have not been affected by anything AMD has done. Intel's overall revenues for these chips are down only because the sales volumes have been hit by the economic climate.
