Fred - Re: "Got my Gateway 400 Mhz this week. Very nice machine;"

Congratulations!

Sounds like you are busy enjoying your new toy.

I have a question on your CD-R - when you make a CD copy from a music CD, do you generate a direct Digital-to -Digital copy WITHOUT going from a Digital-Analog-Digital reconversion?

Paul

Fred & Intel Investors - An interesting UpTick in Intel CPU Prices

This was reported over the week end - I'm not sure what it means - maybe AMD isn't delivering K6's and Pentium II demand is increasing due to this situation?

Who knows - stranger things have happened!

Paul

Pentium II Spot Prices Increase
By Mark Hachman

Spot prices on the 233- and 266-MHz versions of Intel Corp.'s Pentium II desktop-chip rose last week against a general trend of price declines, according to analysts and commodity traders. On Thursday, the American IC Exchange reported that the spot price of a 233-MHz Pentium II was $158.48, vs. a historical low of $147.73;
the 266-MHz Pentium II was at $185.93, compared with a low of $181.30. Typically, prices for Intel CPUs have followed a steady decline. Analysts and traders differed over the reason for the rise in prices; theories ranged from increased sales of Windows 98 systems to a decline in supply of low-end processors as Intel phases
them out.

I added a TEAX 4x/12x CD-R and have been going nuts making audio CD's (compilations and copies for the car).

I got my drive earlier this year and did the same thing. How many frisbees are you making (I made 5 out of 20 at first, now none)?

Fred you should also look into making mp3 compilation disks - you can put 12 hours of music on a single CD.

Re-Your purchase of a new Gateway---

I just purchased a Gateway/pentium for my college bound daughter.
The early puchase allows her to become familiar with the machine before
classes start. Unfortunately, our existing Gateway/486 is so out
classed that a palace revolt is in full swing, demanding an upgrade
of the family PC.
