Andreas, Agree 100% If I was buying a $700 PC and the salesman said it would cost me $725 for an Intel chip-----Why take a chance? Buy the "name brand" and dish out the extra $30. Dell also has plans for the sub-$1000 PC. Guess what chips they will be using? I think Dell's entry here will add a lot to the cheap CPU market for Intel.

Andreas - Re: "Do these people actually believe that consumers will stay with amd if its price advantage evaporates after intc price cuts take hold?? " The CNBC folks have different "priorities". Since 99% of their guests are involved in making money buying and selling stocks - and NOT MAKING AND SELLING CPUS - their loyalties are to those who benefit by stocks that go WAY UP or WAY DOWN. I'm sure Maria likes to oblige her "friends". Paul
