Intel To Slash Prices Up To 60%

Chuan-kai Lin writes "According to Bloomberg, Intel will slash product prices by up to 60% in order to regain market share captured by AMD." From the article: "Intel said it will reduce prices of faster dual-core chips by about 15 percent, according to Alex Lin, a product marketing manager at Micro-Star, Taiwan's third-largest maker of motherboards, which connect electronic parts in computers ... Shares of Intel have fallen 33 percent since Otellini succeeded Craig Barrett in May last year. Advanced Micro's stock has gained 77 percent during the same period. Intel fell 31 cents to $17.08 at 12:06 p.m. New York time in Nasdaq Stock Market composite trading. Advanced Micro dropped $1.55, or 5.5 percent, to $26.45 on concerns that Intel will lower prices."

Fantastic!

This is just what I've been hoping for! Thank you, Intel, for addressing my needs as a consumer and forcing AMD to drop the prices on those Athlon 64s I love so very very much.

Price is reason? Stuff it,

I'm waiting for Fry's Electronics to open two cashier-lines, one for Intel purchases and the other for AMD purchases. This is so I can bypass all you hotflash Intelians, and the stock market can be reflected by how many customer checkout lines are dedicated to whicher company.

AMD is a corporation of the United States. Intel is run by a bunch of fuckin' Jews, and a purchase from them jews supports that country with the highest number of human slave trafick: Israentel.

With an AMD processor, was defended from a horde of mutant ninjas and wolverines over summer break, and I never complained. Gosh!

A bare market? Sounds fun... don't think my girlfriend would appreciate me "appreciating" the wares, though...
