While the more leisure-loving among us were roasting weenies over Labor Day weekend, the folks at Intel were busy rolling up their sleeves and going to work. The company revealed a whopping 16 new Sandy Bridge processors over the weekend; five mobile chips and 11 desktop-ready models. That includes couple of Core i3 and i5 chips and a handful of Pentium and Celeron offerings. The big news, though, is the price. The sub-$100 cost of most of the models probably means that Intel’s well aware of the value-priced appeal of AMD’s entry level Llano chips.
As if that wasn't good news enough, Tom’s Hardware reports that the updated Intel price list brings the cost down on some older low power offerings, including five Core i5 chips as well as the Core i7 2600S processor.
Here’s the complete list of new desktop processors:
Meanwhile, the five new mobile chips consist of four Core i7 models and one Celeron. Get 'em while they're cheap, folks.

Those are some pretty reasonable prices coming out of Intel, surprisingly.

A friend of mine, who asked that same question a few weeks ago, drove me up the wall. I'm a Bat'edi.
