Paul - RE: "Here's a point: "The best-selling individual PC at retail in January was the Hewlett- Packard 4450, a Celeron 366-based machine with an average selling price of $874. " That machine was only introduced in January, so we'll see if the momentum carries over into February." You call that a point??? THIS is a point: According to JC (http://www.chiptech.com/jc/), "I'll mention that the top five were rounded out by that Pavilion 4450 Celeron-366 system, a Presario 5204 K6-2-350, a Pavilion 4440 K6-2-333, the iMac (233MHz), and the 5220 Presario K6-2-380." What's your point now? Don't worry too much about Intel, though. One of the articles said the retail segment grew 22% in January compared to last year. Intel may have sold what they expected to sell. It is still a shame Intel-based PCs sold less than AMD-based PCs. I posted this to the Intel thread, but I guess you read this thread more often.
