RE:"You know PIII is still selling better than P4 despite being slower AND more expensive than the P4!" Yes, but it's in transition now and Intel is definitely moving to the P4. RE:"This isn't a fact at all, price is the marketing tool that is used to move CPUs nowadays. This is a good part of the reason that the "sweet spot is now $800-1,200 not $1,000-1,500 as before" Yes, in this economy there are pricing pressure. I know what you are saying...trust me. We have a collapse. OTOH, gimmie the Mhz and I'll get you a higher ASP...and every little bit helps. Jim
