Jim, I did not mean that INTC has stopped selling Socket 7 chips, only that they have allegedly stopped making wafers: Celeron foisted on industry Yet the PC makers have little choice but to use the new processor. Soon supplies of the Pentium MMX processor, currently used in several sub-$1,000 solutions, will run out. Intel has stopped producing the wafers used for manufacturing the Pentium MMX, said Otellini in a PC Week interview on Tuesday. The 266MHz Celeron is priced at $155 in lots of 1,000. With no new processors coming out of the fabs, PC can choose: Intel's Celeron or a competing processor. The question is, do the OEM's really think they have a viable choice? IBM and CPQ think so, the rest??? Anthony
