Slot One Gone For Celeron?
A US distributor is claiming that Intel has already discontinued Slot One designs for the Celeron 300A.
We knew that was Intel's cunning plan (and applies also to the 333MHz part) but we hadn't heard it was happening that quickly.
Indeed, at the beginning of December 1998, many were claiming that Slot One Celerons were sloshing around unsold in the channel. Intel has made no secret of its cunning plan to move people to Socket 370 just as soon as possible...
A notice at The Ram Warehouse is claiming that Intel said it was discontinued on the 13th of January.
At press time it was Sunday, so Intel UK was recovering from its roast beef and Yorkshire pudding. We'll investigate more tomorrow... ®
