Are you saying for the first time in history, Intel aregoing to depart from their pricing scheme? I'm sorry, but allevidence indicates otherwise. The QX 9775 and QX 9770 are both siginificantly more expensive than i965 XE. The Q9650 price > i940, and Q9550 price > i920. WHY? Ci7 prices have no where to go but down, especially given marginal performance improvement over penryn - a drop-in upgrade.
