A company spokeswoman confirmed that the chips will cost about $560 each in thousand unit quantities. The chips are for use in high performance desktop personal computers.

On Friday, Intel (INTC: news, chart, profile) shares rose 27 cents to $30.68.

The latest P4 chips available next week will be made using 200mm wafers, but in a month the P4 2.4 GHz is expected to be made from 300mm wafers. Also, the chips are made using 0.13 micron technology.

The 300mm wafers combined with the processing technology at 0.13 microns results in lower costs and higher performance.

Since the P4's first quarter of full production, which came during the first-quarter of last year, Intel is currently shipping 10 times as many chips now as it did then.

Mining analysts point to small-fry companies

[ME: if investors only knew, the best way to break the Gold Cartel would be to buy gold bars and silver bars, physical gold & silver... stocks are the paper game... to break these guys and their headlock on the market, investors must purchase small and medium quantities of the physical]

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS.MW) -- With spot gold above $300 an ounce, the question becomes, what's still a steal? Very little, it turns out.

some clipping:
An ounce of silver Thursday was selling for $4.68 in New York futures trading. "Silver is poised to break to the upside in a big way," says Martin Pring of the International Institute for Economic Research. Pring, a technical analyst, says both gold and silver prices appear ready to spring far higher in coming weeks and months.

Robert Bishop, longtime gold mining newsletter editor, points to several Canadian junior companies, most of them already soaring in price. When his clients say they're worried about the expensive prices of mining stocks, Bishop, editor of The Gold Mining Stock Report, is known to say, "If you don't buy, it will cost you dearly. Just ask the people who didn't believe in gold's prospects a year ago."
