No planned price cuts for 500 or 600 seriesIt looks like the pricing on Pentium 4's right now is as good as it gets until August according to this report over at DigiTimes
Intel has no plans to cut the prices of its 500- and 600-series Pentium 4 CPUs before the second quarter ...
Intel [will] lower the prices of the 600-series CPUs in August when the chip giant unveils its dual-core 800-series processors.
I think this is the first time that there has been more specifics about the release date of their dual core chips. With the P4 600 series faring pretty positively in reviews and some of Intel's lower end stuff being pretty reasonably priced already, I guess Intel is not too concerned about the success of the Athlon 64 which still does not seem like it is making too many inroads into the OEM sector unlike the Opterons.
