Now if you can imagine that being yelled out by cockney spruikers in front of a bargain-basement processor shop, then you can easily picture the price ware going on between Intel and AMD. Bargains, bargains, bargains! Intel dropped the price of its 1.5Ghz P4 by a touch over 50 per cent down to $US256, and now AMD has gotten out the axe.

The largest AMD cut is on the 1.33GHz Athlon, which tumbled by a mighty ('ow do they do it?) 47.7 per cent to a piddling $US183. The cheaper range of AMD Durons also fell prey to cur-price fever, with the 900MHz model dropping down to a mere $US79. I'd love to tell you more, but frankly I'm going shopping.
