Scumbria: re >>Intel spends billions of dollars a year to stifle their competition. Suppose Intel had never introduced Celeron. Their ASP's would be well over $300. INTC would be trading at $200 and AMD would be trading at $50.<< That's ridiculous! If Intel ceded the low end to amd, amd might be trading at 200 with intel at 50. That would have allowed breathing room for amd to eventually threaten in more lucrative portions of the market. Even though celerons reduce Intel's ASP's I believe they add incremental profit as opposed to amd shipping money with every chip they sell.
