How much do quad cores go for now?

And when do you think they'll hit $200-300?

Here's the cheapest Core 2 Quad, at the moment: $535.

As soon as everyone but you already has one.

I hope AMD has a Quad Core in the price range.

By the time the Phenom is out, the .45nm Intel Quads will likely be available. Even if the Phenom turns out to be a good chip, it probably won't be a good OC'er compared to Core 2 Quads on a smaller process.

Was the Q6600 going for 1000 smackers when it first came out?

No, the QX6700 was though, iirc.
