i7 now considering the price drop?

Firstly the Bulldozer will be faster than I7
Well, even IF (a very big if) that is the case, it might end up as the same scenerio as HD5850/HD5870 and the GTX470/480, with Bulldozer coming 2 years late, slightly faster than i7 920, and at a higher price point...

One thing to note is that AMD's advantage of saving money is partly to do with their decent low price motherboard...but with the average mid-price range moving up from average £90 of the 700 range chipset boards to the 800 range chipset board at £110~£120, one would worry what would the pricing of the motherboard with best chipset range for Bulldozer (chipset 900 may be) would be like...
