These are from the back of the June 24 issue of PC Week. Some of the companies have not published their new pricing yet, for those I have just included a phone number. Microway ELKCO ========================== Intel 16sx $120 $135 20sx $135 $147 16 $175 -- 20 $180 $215 25 $185 $215 33 $194 $215 Cyrix 16sx $115 $122 20sx $125 $133 16 -- $189 20 $175 $189 25 $175 $189 33 $184 $205 These prices suprise me in that Microway is actually lower than ELKCO. I have never known Microway to be a low cost supplier (more like middle to high), but oh-well. BTW, most of these places also sell memory at pretty good to very good prices. If I were in the market for a '387 chip I think that I would try to wait for 2-3 weeks while these prices stabalize.

Part of the reason is that owls eat mice, and thus make a certain number of cats unnecessary, which is always a plus. Jeff Duntemann, Dr. Dobb's June '91

Interesting that Microway still scales the price according to speed. I heard that the 33MHz 387 was a redesigned part and different from the slower 387s. Supposedly a 33MHz 387 running at 25MHZ was faster than the 25MHz part. Can anyone confirm this? Gerard
