More CPU News: Intel To Cut Prices - Panopticon - 05-21-2007
DailyTech has reported that July 22 is the start date for a new round of CPU price slashing at Intel. http://www.dailytech.com/Intel+Readies+Price+Cuts+For+Quadcore+Desktop+Server+Processors/article7293.htm
[quote DailyTech.com - ]
The first part of the price cuts will center on Intel's quad-core desktop processors. The Q6600, which Intel launched in February, currently sells for $530 in quantities of 1000. When the product was originally launched, it was priced at $851 in quantities of 1000. The next round of price cuts will effectively lower the price to $266.
If they're cutting the Q6600 below $300, the E6xxx series (Core2 Duo) should drop substantially. Perhaps the C2D Mini isn't that far off?

Minis use Txxxx series Core 2 Duos, the mobile (laptop) versions, not the Exxxx series which are desktop processors.

Huh uhh. Minis use CD processors, not C2Ds.
