OK, Here's a rare (and odd) opportunity! I'm putting together 2 PCs - an Athlon XP 2100+ for myself, and a top-of-the-line 2700+ system for a family friend. I placed the order for all the components (at a major online retailer) two days ago, including the processors, just before he unexpectedly (and kindly!) offered to cover the difference in price so that I could get a faster processor in my system as well - his way of saying thanks! I haven't told him yet that I've ordered it already, and would like to see if I get any decent offers for the chip over the next two days while I'm waiting for it to arrive in the mail! I should receive it tomorrow afternoon or Thursday at the latest. Its a retail packaged, AMD Athlon XP 2100+, comes with an AMD recommended heatsink and fan & with a 3-year warranty. Your warranty will start the same time as I give it to you! And you save money on shipping, and the hassle for looking for a reliable, safe e-tailer etc etc plus whatever you can bargain off its value from me :). Also, if you do your research, the next faster processor is the 2200+ which actually costs over 50% more than this one. So as for bang for the buck, nothing beats this chip, and it will likely remain the best 'value' high end processor for many more weeks! So if you're putting together or upgrading a system that is 'almost' cutting edge, but the greatest deal on price - this is the perfect chip for you! Also, if you're into overclocking or something like that, this is one of the most stable chips out there, accordingly to all reports! If I receive any sensible offers (hey, this is as good as buying it brand new yourself!), that don't make me lose more than, say, 10% of the value of the chip (so I'm offering a 10% discount!) - I WILL sell it! But you literally have only 2 days to make me the offer! Otherwise I'll just plunk it into my remaining components to make my own PC. I will not sell it once its opened - but if I have a good offer, I won't even open it. You get it sealed! I'm purposely not naming a price - find the best price for this chip that YOU can online (or locally) - include shipping and/or tax as applicable, and make me an offer of 90% of that total. Send me the link to confirm. And you get instant gratification, while I get to wait a further 6-7 days for a faster, more expensive processor to be shipped to me :) I'm in the Herndon/Reston area of NoVA, and you can pick this up, or I will deliver locally. Snap this one up, people! Those in the know should know a good deal when they see it - come share in my good fortune, eh? ;-) I can be reached at tishoo @ hotmail . com (lose all the spaces) -ashu
