Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Looks like the full article text isn't available online. Here's the abstract.
Sorry to be old school, but I think reading printed books and magazines is fun and educational.
The upshot is that author noticed a study done a while ago of Pentium pricing trends. The study graphed the price of each chip over its product lifecycle. The resulting graph shows some interesting characteristics. The article author (but not the study author) used that data to make some interesting observations about competition in the desktop processor market. Specifically, that AMD and Intel might have a different relationship than most people think.

What would be about right?
The underlying paper was written by Dr. Ana Aizcorbe, who is an economist at the US Department of Commerce's Bureau of Economic Analysis. The paper is available at their site.
It's interesting how the product cycles have shortened, and the product pricing drops steeper. Why doesn't the product pricing stay the same, just to be replaced by another product with more capabilities at the same price, since the cycles are so short, now?
