INTEL CORP said it cut prices on some of its microprocessors as much as 34 percent, as the world's largest chipmaker seeks to spur demand and takes advantage of declining manufacturing costs. As Intel ramps up manufacturing on newer chips the brains of PCs the cost to make them falls, allowing the Santa Clara, Calif.-based company to pass cost savings on to consumers. Intel also cuts prices on older chips to move them out and make way for faster chips. (Reuters 02:10 PM ET 09/14/98) For the full text story, see infobeat.com

John, Interesting comment on CPQ/DEC/TANDEM issues in Europe. I am currently attending the DECUS (DEC User Society) symposium in Paris and just walked out of the first Keynote address. John Rose (CPQ Enterprise Computing Group) shared strategy with us. Very briefly, one of the key areas of focus is integration of Tandem technologies like NSK into NT, Digital Unix & Open VMS. This is also happening the other way around in that the next generation Himalaya and Integrity servers from Tandem will utilise Alpha processors. All in all, he painted an extremely positive picture of the three companies integration thus far. I only have intermittant access to the Internet, but I will summarise the keynote sometime this evening and hopefully post it tomorrow. It was very interesting from a shareholder point of view in judging the "state of the integration" Regards, H
