Excellent price on the unit, but it doesn't seem that the elitists over at AudioReview.com think too highly of it.

My problem with Dr. Laura isn't her views (although I disagree with them), her hypocritical comments, or her morals. What I object to is her audacity to propose that if someone doesn't live by her ideals, that makes them an immoral person. It's just another case of someone trying to force their...

Sweet. You da man! :D

I know the S-spec will determine the stepping. That's why I asked if either are indicated. ;) Thanks for the info. Much appreciated. Would you happen to know precisely where on the box it is? I have a few retail boxes at home, but I'm at work for another 10 hours, and can possibly go to the...

I got one of those Gateway 6400 servers and want to get a 2nd CPU to throw in there. The CPU they sent is a CD0 stepping, and from my understanding, CB0 and CC0 stepping P3's are iffy for SMP with a CD0 because the CD0 uses a different core voltage. I finally tracked down a vendor online that's...

Super post, Danzilla. :) Thanks for clarifying that.

Aren't the Cert Plus the better quality ones?

Are these the Certified Plus or the 100% Certified?

Sales tax for me was about $30, and free shipping.
