I believe that those MB's are already out. Am I mistaken?

Hello! I've read, tons, and tons of reviews, but I would like to get some personal experience opinions. I'm getting ready to drop about 1200 to 1400 dollars in building a AMD system. I'm looking at building a Thunderbird Athlon-C 1.13gig (266FSB) system. I need a motherboard that supports...
