Scumby - Re: " When PC magazine starts telling people that Celeron is as good as PII, will they continue to buy PII's?"

Pentium III

Pentium III

Pentium III

Tenchsatsu told you - Intel will replace the middle end of their lineup with Pentium III !

Pentium II prices will drop.

Celeron prices will drop.

K6-2 prices will PLUMMET.

Sharpy will be introduced to much fan fare, We're Back Sanders will claim a major victory, the analysts will announce AMD a success and in a few quarters We're Back Sanders will tell us all why the Sharpy shipments didn't live up to expectations.

Believe me, We're Back Sanders has this speech memorized !

Most end user will not and would buy Celeron or wait for
Pentium III. For business, it is entirely different. It
would take much longer time for them to certify a new
system(thus would continue to buy PII).
