According to The Inquirer Intel will be launching the 1.7ghz version of the Pentium4 for $350 next week. Currently the 1.5Ghz P4 is $519, the 1.4GHz is $375, and the 1.3 GHz one is $268 so they should all have a pretty big price drop. Saw that at Stomped.

Athlons are sweet, too bad ADM can't make a mainboard chipset 1/4 as good as most of Intel's. I run a PC shop and 95% of my on-site tech support goes to idiot AMD Duron/Athlon owners. And these are on top quality components, MSI & Asus mainboards, good drives and drivers etc..

While I can't remember the time I was asked for service on a i815 or i850 platform.

i820 aside, Intel's chipsets are just plain awesome and idiot proof.

VIA and thier 4in1-version-of-the-month really need to get thier act together (686B southbridge/ATA transfer bug anyone? That bug alone has caused me enough headache)

And a board that doesn't have shitty integrated audio and video. Wtf is Intel thinking. PC133 has actually been shown to surpass Rambus in numerous memory benchmark tests. I'm seriously considering going with AMD now... They are at least giving consumers what they want and simply what is just plain better!

Too bad I'd rather have a free Duron 700 than a free Pentium 4. Even without overclocking it's about the same speed in many benchmarks, but counting oc'ing the 700 Duron, the P4 is just plain obliterated. So sad so sad...
