Yousef, You really don't know much about marketing do you? Ever try to compare prices of appliances between major retailers? Sometimes it's very hard because they don't carry exactly the same thing. They do that on purpose. A manufacturer will sell one model to Best Buy and a slightly different one to Circuit City or Costco. So what does this mean for AMD...HP get's the 366 which what THEY want...and IBM gets the 400 which is WHAT THEY WANT IN THEIR LINE and maybe Compaq gets the 380 etc... Jim
