I just noticed alot of people here lookin to buy computers fairly soon, and thought I would share what is going on, if no one cares...so be it, just something people can keep in mind.

Ahh...  it was all so vague it was hard to interpret that you were talking more about a general shift in prices over all (for intel chips in the 1.8 range)..

That's good to know... so does that mean I should buy, sell, or hold intel stock? (I'm just teasing don't directly own any intel stock)

So does this mean they got a really cheap / mass yield of 1.8s? or did a batch of 3 ghz go horribly wrong? (I realize it might not necessarily work that way)

*shrug*  I'll keep an eye out to watch the prices.

actually all it means is with a combination of back to school and an increase of demand for lower end chips intel is increasing loading for these chips and driving prices down...the chips I'm refering to are designed at the speed they are being sold at
