wbmw,

Overall, it's probably less than 100,000 parts, but better that Intel got $30 for it, rather than having to scrap it with a disposal fee.

You know very well that these are downbinned parts. They could most likely run at 3 GHz and be priced at $100 (old Celeron top of the line price), or $70 (new Celeron top of the line price.

The downbinning is taking place in order to snatch the lowest end share from AMD or even VIA, at prices almost unheard of from Intel. (one reason I don't hold any CPU stock at this time)
