Now I'm back and there's no sign of that article...
But I saw that! Am I the only one?

I don't mean to flame but it might make sense to lower prices simply because the x86 crowd keeps getting faster without raising prices.

In other words, if the hardware is falling behind you need to lower the price.

My thoughts exactly.

Let's hope this is a sign of good things to come. If they just release a dual 1.2 GHz with the same slow 133 bus I WILL SCREAM!
