My current CPU is an Intel (the E6600, in fact), the first time since my

But that's a bit misleading, because processors with the same
performance/price ratio will come out with different colours. Try drawing
on some lines of constant price/performance - it makes the chart more
interesting...

I can't immediately think of a way of convincing M$ Excel to do that...
It's not the most advanced plotting package ever.

Just create some more series data to add to the plot, with xy values that
start at the origin and then go to some point far away to the upper right.
Then change the style for these series so that it draws the connecting lines
rather than just the data points. Job done :-)

It's more advanced then most people think. I've just knocked up a three
column sheet with price, mark, and mark/price and created a Line on 2 Ax
es
chart plotting performance against price and m/p.

Ermm, copy and paste your graph into powerpoint, add some lines and text
boxes, then took a screen shot, cropped it and saved it as a png...

PowerPoint, eh? I didn't know that could do rotated text... [Altough
I'll admit I haven't actually tried that before.]

Meh I prefered mine :-P
Here, this is a stock Excel chart template with data from a catalogue on
my desk featuring some USB stick prices; should be self-explanatory.
