Once again, the Japanese stores in the electronic district of Tokyo seem to have got the drop on the CPU companies. This store is listing the Pentium III/600, which officially doesn't start selling until the end of the month, at ¥99,800 yen.

The 600MHz Pentium III is a .25 micron beastie, with what is described by one Intel Insider as a "SuperKatmai" core... Intel's financial results are out this evening. ®
