| Regarding CPU's? I am lookint at what I bought 6 months ago and it has only dropped by $30. (My e6600). Strange. I would have thought around 50 or 60 by now. |

| I don't see another big drop happening until another big processor is introduced by either AMD or Intel. |

yeah, but I was expecting for the true dual cores to drop once the quads came out. They didn't.  |

| why would they? Quad cores are twice the price of a Dual core. Nothing will change untill AMD releases Stars CPU's. AMD has started a new price war recently so AMD CPU's are coming down in price. But intel can afford to keep them high cause their product is better. Same thing happened with AMD and a64, intel slashed their prices cause the p4 sucked arse. |
