CPU price reductions

Intel just reduced CPU prices, the site should be updated with the newer lower prices.

Very interesting.

The biggest drop by far has been the Q6700 processor, coming down in half.

I noticed Dell has already dropped some prices as well. I saw the E8200 processor for the same price difference from the E4500 as the E6550 had been previously.

On the XPS 420, the upgrade from the Q6600 to the Q7600 costs $350. With the new prices, the upgrade should be $40 but dell needs to make profit so it should be close to $60. And because the proce of the Q6600 went down so fat, the starting price of the computers sould reflect that major drop.
