Nehalem pricing...
http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=14376 QUOTE
According to HKEPC, which cites motherboard manufacturers as its source, Intel's 2.66GHz Bloomfield part will retail at a surprisingly low $284, in one thousand unit quantities. Intel clearly doesn't want customers to wait until 2009 for its mid-range Nehalem parts, and if sub-$300 parts do arrive in Q4, there could be every reason for a Christmas upgrade.
The 2.66GHz chip will be joined by 2.93GHz and 3.2GHz parts, priced at $562 and $999, respectively. The latter 3.2GHz part will be branded an Extreme product, a title reflected in its price-tag.
This rumoured pricing is yet to be confirmed by Intel, but if a 2.66GHz Bloomfield arrived in Q4 with a retail price of say $299 or around £199, it would make for a mighty tempting upgrade. Though, you'll have to factor in the cost of a required motherboard upgrade for socket 1366.
Nehalem launch schedule?

Tentatively set your calenders because week 44, or late September, since this is when X58 and Nehalem's Bloomfield boards will arrive for us consumers.
Well, maybe. Between hearing the news and writing the news there was an insinuation that Intel might push it back because the new chipset and architecture might have a few issues.
We're not talking G45 delays, but we're aware some motherboard engineers are upset with Intel because even this late in the day it's suggesting component changes, which could affect design and sampling schedules. With only six weeks to go Intel might be giving the Taiwanese a few ulcers!
We've also been told that Intel's premium X58 chipset alone will cost $70, making the boards quite expensive, but this is not unexpected and by no means completely insane like Nvidia launching the nForce 790i Ultra SLI with a chipset that cost $100+. Instead just expect new technologies to charge a happy premium for the time being.
If you're the big business type and want workstation and server parts, you're in luck because those should launch four weeks earlier in week 40. Single socket Xeons are where we'll get the first idea of Nehalem performance over Penryn, however it makes us wonder why Intel are moving so early to its new architecture with Penryn doing so well.
Usually we see the newest parts arrive in October - we hope Intel hasn't taken a leaf out the graphics book of ever intensive product launch sequences.
Intel unveils Nehalem demo machine

they seem to be driving the technology in processors nowadays. but aren't the users gonna lose? coz some might just buy their new processor, maybe about a year or less a new one with new technology comes out in market. i remember in those pentium 4 days, the amount of new processors coming out in market isn't as afast as this..
