Source : DigitimesIn order to stop AMD cpus equipped with 3 cores becoming an attractive option, Intel decided to cut the price of some of its products.
Thus Core 2 Duo Quad Q8000 running at 2,33 GHz with a 1333 MHz bus will henceforth cost $203, a very low price for this type of product.
Unfortunately for the Mac world, these price cuts relate to only the segment where AMD is present, and that Apple does not use. We will thus gain nothing from this war, unless, of course, that Apple proposes a small tower positioned between the iMac and the Mac Pro.
