Quite depressing for AMD, great news for consumers though!

The price for falling behind the curve in this industry is insane! 8O

I wonder if and when this will trickle down to the remaining S939 Opterons...

Yes! that should bring my new build to just under $1000.

Could someone post a news-organization link? There's a bit of heresay surrounding this.

best I could find quickly is the the first place I saw this at AMDzone .

How low will the 3600 drop to? I might consider it.

It seems the x2 3600+ here in Australia has dropped about $20ish the x2 3800+ by about $30ish so it seems the prics cuts are about 20/35% off the current price which is a decent price cut poor AMD yay me.
