Here's an interesting article mentioning low pricing for Celeron: Dow Jones Newswires -- April 1, 1998 Intel Starts Shipping Celeron At Lower-Than-Expected Price By Mark Boslet PALO ALTO (Dow Jones)--Intel Corp. (INTC) began shipping its Celeron chip to computer makers earlier this week with a price lower than many analysts had expected. The 266-megahertz microprocessor is Intel's first entry to target the rapidly growing sub-$1,000 segment of the computer market. In that segment, Intel is meeting with stiff competition from Advanced Micro Devices Inc.'s (AMD) K6 family of chips. The new chip, a version of Intel latest generation Pentium II technology, is selling in volume purchases for between $140 to $150 each, industry sources said. Some experts had expected the chip to sell for as much as $185. The shipments to computer makers started in anticipation of an April 15 launch of the product. An Intel spokesman said it is typical for products to ship to computer makers in advance of a formal launch date. The spokesman declined to comment on pricing. -By Mark Boslet; 650/496-1366 Larry
