All, I just checked PriceWatch and things definitley don't look very good for AMD given Intel's aggressive pricing. The following are the best prices offered:

May 1:

PII 233: $191
PII 266: $235
PII 300: $283

K6 300: $249

So much for AMD matching equivalent Intel chips with 25% discount. Who will buy K6 300 over better-performing PII 300? More importantly, how will AMD make any money with this price structure??? <ggg> Bottom Line: more AMD losses for Q2, while PII/Slot 1 becomes the industry standard!!!

greg, reJoey, You actually beleive people are going to buy that Intel crap celeron 266 performs worse than a Pentium 166. give us a break.

Don't believe all that anti-Intel press campaign. Celeron outperforms the best Pentium MMX chips, and that's all its supposed to do.
