Wanna, I'll have to disagree with this one. I paid $700 for one of the first 486 DX 2/66 when they came out. A few months later I build an AMD DX 4 /100 which I paid $200 for. I can't believe that you don't see how AMD's ( and Cyrix's for a while ) competition has lowered CPU prices to today's levels. If it weren't for AMD we'd be buying 1Ghz CPUS for $1000 today.

w:What has shaped the PC market has happened because Intel has allowed it to happen, not because AMD was there to influence it. I find it simply amazing that you invest so much of your time on this AMD board. Your time, like many of your posts, must not be very valuable. Take this one for instance. That you can't grant AMD one smidgeon of credit where it is so blazingly obviously due, speaks to a very narrow mind incapable of objective thought. Maybe that's why your time isn't very valuable. An alternative hypothesis: maybe you're being paid to do this?? Doesn't matter...you're on 'ignore' for a while. eCo I suppose DDR is here because of Intel's grace. LOL
