re:Great post. That's exactly what I was thinking. Intel is producing chips that a lot of people don't want and stopping production on chips they do want. There lame excuse will be...if you want a Pentium II you're going to have to whip out the big bucks and buy at least a 350. If you want a Pentium II-333-300-266 or 233, it's "sorry charlie" but you have to buy this here "Celery A" chip that we designed especially for you po' folk. If you want a PentiumMMX-233...it's "sorry charlie" all over again. Go find one on the open market for $165! This after about half of the chips Intel sold last quarter were PentumMMXs! Using this logic, money could be made shorting Intel here in the mid-high 80s and going long in AMD at $18. Are you doing this? I'd wait until the 24th. Things will get surprisingly clear on that date. joey
