LOL!

I am running a Quad Processing Money Machine so my throughput is around $13 a minute.

Sorry, we've determined that there is an error in our MPMM architecture (Multi Processing Money Maker). It appears there is a floating point problem, and the 13dpm (dollars per minute) rate is unfortunately restricted to 1.3dpm at this time. We apologize for the inconvenience and will be sending you a rebate check in the mail at a carrier rate of .027mpd (miles per day).

Edit: yes I'm jealous.

That said the 9700 is an incredible card and I would not hesitate to recommend it.

Is there any chance that you would not hesitate to give me one?

bluemax you must be mad and going crazy because you did not get the deal of $320 for the ATI 9700 pro.

Well CompUSA started shipping yesterday at $399.99 each if you cannot wait.

Not being American I'd never get the deal to begin with. Nor do I have $300+ USD to toss away.
Well, with my new job I might.

Anyone know any online vendors that have it for sale now?

 

[boi]

I went to CompUSA and BB today and they don't have them! =( Anyone know of any stores in the LA are carrying these?

 

[GrimReefer]

imo anyone who buys anything from a computer store is getting ripped off. For example... at CompUSA... the Soyo Dragon Ultra 333 mobo was $249.99! umm, what the-

They're still charging over a hundred bucks for 512mb of some CompUSA brand pc133 SDRAM... it's a conspiracy.

True, but for people who want something and want it now, it can't be beat. I can use an Amex Gold to price match down in a month.

When will CompUSA and such have it in stock? I'm getting old here.

I called CompUSA today and they said that they are available online now and will be in stores on Tuesday, September 3. . .for what it's worth.

Sometimes you can get a good deal at a B&M store. I picked up 256MB of Crucial PC2100 at BB for $50 when the Crucial.com price direct was $66. The store was insulated from the rapid flux of the memory market.

Newegg now has them in stock at 369 with free shipping.
