hmm, as far as i see. you can get a 1.4 for around 200 dollars. I didn't think that was expensive myself. a pricedrop would be something differnent. I think in august when the new chip comes out it will drop.

Pretty soon they will be giving them away in a Happy Meal. How much is an 800MHz Duron now? $30?

athlon 1.4's can be had for around $170, i've seen them at that price from my local hardware retailer (Fry's). Not all deals have to come from newegg you know ;)

i have a STRONG feeling that prices are going to go up sometime soon though. They can't stay like this forever. I think DUrons might have gone up a little bit, correct me if i'm wrong?

I saw at one place, MigrateZone, the Durons went way up on price, and the Athlons a bit too. Other places seem to be pretty stable though.

I hear the next price drop will be on Monday with the intro of the official 1 Ghz Duron.

*opens up happy meal*

:Q

MOMMY! I got a DURON!

:D


that would rule so much if they gave out computer stuff in happy meals.

Anyway the chips are getting real cheap right now, I just wished a cheap dual AMD board would show its face then I'd be happy
