Oh I normally tell the recipient I am sending a handful of $10 - $15 cigars. It's not like they don't know. I think the most expensive cigar I've received was around $20.

I was feeling good this week. I sent one guy 15 cigars and another person 10.

I gave up long ago. I don't understand it at all.

Fanboys are idiots. You have people in there saying "I will never buy Intel!" WTF? I don't care who makes the CPU, graphic card, or motherboard as long as I think I am getting the best bang for the buck.

The number of people who ran out and bought boards, etc. months ago awaiting Bulldozer are complete idiots. Once the release dates slipped twice this year and the leaked benchmarks all painted a pretty bad picture, I was pretty confident in my decision to upgrade to an i7 and fortunately I was right.

My favorite post was the guy a few weeks ago who was absolutely, 100% convinced that AMD was going to clobber SB and the secrecy was to take Intel by surprise. If that isn't an example of fanboy stupidity, I don't know what is.

Has it actually been released?


I no longer take part in prerelease speculation. It's stupid and pointless :\

Yes, you can buy them today. Had these guys listened to the leaked benchmarks, speculation, and common sense (AMD wouldn't keep delaying a release to "take Intel by surprise"), maybe they wouldn't be forced to buy an AMD CPU now or take a hit on reselling their boards.
