I might get around to ordering my 2.4c next week, I hope it goes to around $189 for the Retail version.
Anyone think so, or do you think it will stay at $199 for a few Weeks?
It'll probably be around $175 street prices within a week or so because its $178 each in 1000 quantity lots. Yes, it will drop more.
Uhh, are you sure about that AGA? If a retailer like NewEgg.com has to buy 1,000 units at $178 each, I dont understand why they would then just want to turn around and sell them for $178 or less. If they do this, wouldn't they be selling each P4c 2.4 cpu at a loss? I think any business would need to add a few $$ on to the price of $178 to cover expenses and make a bit of a profit.
And is the 1000 lot minimum for Retail Versions, or OEM CPU's?
