AMD may lower K8 prices in July

Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) may cut the prices on its K8 platform CPUs in July, which would come one month before Intel’s planned price cuts for its Pentium 4 600 series, according to market sources. Intel is expected to lower its prices on August 14, although sources indicated Intel may implement the cuts earlier if motherboard sales in the second quarter are lower than expected.

AMD claimed no knowledge of the news. In May, AMD announced price cuts of its Sempron processors.

Nvidia, which is promoting the AMD platform aggressively, has reduced the price of its nForce3 250 chipset by about US$5, according to sources at Nvidia’s customers. If the cuts go through, the new price will be similar to the price offered by VIA Technologies for its mainstream chips, the sources added.

Harry Potter 6 - The Half-Blood Prince

Release Date: July 16, 2005 The following is a list of facts that we know about book six, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. From JKRowling.com: - The link between Chamber of Secrets and Half-Blood Prince relates to a discovery Harry made in 'Chamber' that foreshadows something that he finds out in 'Prince'. - Tom Riddle is not the Half Blood Prince (he is Voldemort). - Arthur Weasley is not the Minister of Magic. - Crucial information in The Half-Blood Prince was originally planned to be placed in Chamber of Secrets, the second book. - The HBP (half-blood prince) is not Harry or Voldemort. - There will not be two chapters in book six titled "Lupin's Papers" and "The Lovegoods in Court." - An excerpt from HBP: "He looked rather like an old lion. There were streaks of grey in his mane of tawny hair and his bushy eyebrows; he had keen yellowish eyes behind a pair of wire-rimmed spectacles and a certain rangy, loping grace even though he w
