Re: "The whole reason Intel came up with the PPGA version of the Celeron was to reduce costs. Well, looks like at this moment their plan isn't working as they would like it to. The PPGA version costs 7% MORE than the single edge cartridge design version!!! I assume Intel hopes motherboards will offset the cost."

Please don't be so naive as to think price is a function of cost.

Notice the PPGA 300A is a lot more than the PPGA 333...
Also the Motherboard is 114.95...you can get a BH6 for $95.
