Intel Viiv Prices get cut

In the second half of this year Intel plans to cut prices of its Viiv platform chipsets in order broaden its market presence. The ICH8-DH did cost round about 5 US$ in the first and only 3 US$ in the second quarter. Its upcoming successor, the ICH9-DH will start with a 1 US$ price tag - the tag will be almost more expensive itself then.
After all Intel got some serious competition with AMD's Live! solution and won't be as successful as with the Centrino platform motherboard makers think.

Viiv and Live, these technologies haven't really caught the publics eye, they should just drop it and stick with what they know.

I have no freaking idea mate. It's one of those weird catch terms that don't mean much to anyone but the technoboffins who make this shit up.
