You are quite right, the prices i was talking about was for the 8xxEE cpus, i had no idea the 955s were out in the uk, however the high performance ones will be the 65Nm which should completely blow these out of the water (reported dell shipping at 4.3Ghz!!!), sorry for that slip.

Dell would say that, i have a few articles from a well known Uk mag which gos into depth into the antitrust stuff intel are supposedly breaking, AMD would provide a benefit to dell, just not as big as someone like Voodoo Pcs as they produce low end office stuff (usually) that performance is not a factor in. the 65nm presler Dells should be interesting
