I know it's going to happen sometime soon, but I don't know the exact
date.  Just keep watching the stores to find out when.  Also note that
the pentium price drops are *up to* 48%.  That means that one pentium
was discounted 48% and the prices of the rest dropped less.  I would
humbly suggest waiting for the price drop to happen and then buy a
cheaper and faster chip from AMD or Cyrix after they respond (which would
be _very_ quickly).
