I checked Pricewatch and looked at the differences between AMD and Intel. If you already have an AMD motherboard that's upgradable to the 2400+ and 2600+ I don't think considering Intel would be worth the money.

If you are upgrading from a slower P4 it makes sense to check out the prices.

It's great to see the affect AMD is having on Intel. Thank God for Capitalism.

Hmmm...maybe I'll get to pricematch my P4 2.53 when this starts showing.

BTW, "intel" only has one "L." ;)

Well this is good to hear but I am waiting for the SS51G to come down in price before I can get my new system. I wish they'd offer one without video so they could drop the price by $20.

Here's another hot deal. They will drop again on the next round of price cuts. Seen this days ago, where have you been.

Hrm... think alittle bit why they would drop the prices? its pretty obvious that they are going to come out with something better soon... maybe a Pentium5 ... after all the P4 has been around for nearly 2 years now... not to mention that when AMD releases its Opteron at the beginning of Q1 2003 the demand for P4's are going to slump. Its a marketing strategy to sell now before their chip will be obsolete laterl Just my 2 cents

But it's taken them how long now to get out the XP 2400+, way too long, just like you said the P4 has been out for some time now.
Pathetic getting things to market..
To think I used to hate intel, now I sing their praise,
my 110.00 P4 1.6A is the cost of an 1800 with a nice HSF OEM.
Which runs @ 2.43 G'z

;)
This is in HD?

Didn't you realize, InteLL is some cheap knock-off brand of the actual InteL chips. Kind of like the Folex vs. Rolex watches. :D :D :D
