Intel Hits Chip Milestone dailynews.yahoo.com NEW YORK (Reuters) - Intel Corp. (Nasdaq:INTC - news), the world's largest maker of microchips, on Monday said it had begun selling a Pentium 4 processor that runs at two Gigahertz, or two billion cycles per second, marking the doubling of the speed of computer chips in only a year and a half. The Pentium 4 chip will be sold for $562 each in 1,000 unit quantities, San Jose, California-based Intel said. A chip that runs at 1.9 Gigahertz will be sold for $375. Intel introduced the chip in advance of a technical conference it is hosting. In March 2000, Intel and rival Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NYSE:AMD - news) reached a milestone in the development of computer technology by building microchips that run at a billion cycles per second, or one Gigahertz. Between positive guidance and normal progress like this from companies like Intel and AMD we are seeing more signs that there will be another upgrade cycle starting soon. Thanks, RtS
