Please PM me also, CherryBomb, and tell me how to order since I registered but it would not allow me to take the test or could you order a fourth and sell it back to me? Thanks!

btw thermostat and MrCoyote, CherryBOMB probably opened mutiple accounts and took multiple tests while the test was still up. Because of this CherryBOMB got an email with a link to buy the combo. There is no way to get more now with out taking the test before it was taken down.

Three? Ok at two, you COULD have two different rigs you want to throw this into. At three, you're just being greedy.

2 days like what has been said, and it's shipped! :D

Just out of curiosity, is the number your order ends with closer to 1000 or 2000? Wondering because mine is just barely over 2000 and I'm wanting to guesstimate how long before it ships. FWIW, I ordered about 11:45 PM PST on 7/8

930193x, if that helps. Very near 9302. Two of my friends, who went into this deal with me, also have numbers much like mine, and their statuses were both changed to shipped the same day mine were. We all ordered around 3am on the 8th, and when I got home from work today, a little after 3, I saw my status was set to shipped. Took about 60 hours, but I'm sure processing time is different for everyone. The original poster on Fatwallet said that his was shipped after 2 days, and this held true to my friends and I.

Lizardboy, I'm not sure why yours hasn't changed to shipped yet. That's pretty odd. Perhaps they are having trouble processing your order, for whichever odd reason. In which case, I think they may try to contact you by telephone. Try calling them up to see what's going on if you're still on drop shipped by the end of the third day. I know the number is floating around here somewhere.

I'm also pretty sure that most all of these orders will be shipped. This is beautiful :)

Here is the scoop*!*
1)I only opend up two accounts:Both in legal names to a company.Now:

2)Not only did I get three ordered from (1) account,I even passed this login info to a member her @ AT to use as well and he was able to get in on an order through.

3)The other account I never used and so I passed the login to a member on the after noon of the 8th of july when I ordered my first order and Discovered something about the PROMO and the CART which led me to let go of that account.He was Successful in getting in on the deal but as soon as he ordered the link was locked out from being able to be used again!

4)These members I picked because 1)they had a profile activated and 2) they were of Dimond status with at least a year date of 2000 or older.I have been around AT from the begining befor the forums ever existed.I just chose not to register untill 2002.
So I say to all the members and lurkers,If you PMed me or thought about asking me or someone else for help,Know this; if you have 10 posts to your name or 2004 your not going to get anything and secondly if you don't have a profile activated then you have never delt in the F/S forum or you just choose not to show it.Or like some I saw in my chooseing to deal with member CU comes to mind he had a nice back ground year 2000 I think but he had no profile activated......so sorry to you.

5)I'm not going to go in to detail about HOW I was able to do what I did,but I will say I waited in 1 day Intervals to be fair to others in allowing there orders to be placed in the order chain.

6)My two accounts are now link deactive so this deal is over for me.

7)I will shed this much light if you used the AMD PROMO's in a sequence there was a cookie that seemed to block the lock out from happening and you could go through to the cart time and time again.

8)All in all there were 5 orders through 2 accounts of mine which benifited two others as well :Q :p :cool:

9)I only really need 1 of these so there may be room for a member that meets the discription I described and was not able to get in on the deal!

10)As far as being GREEDY some could not even get registerd let alone to the cart,I could get this off and I'm sure it will benifit someone who couldn't.I say why WASTE a GOOD THING*!* ;)

CU :I went back and I see now it was you don't allow for PM's..you do have a profile activated

well i am definately not new to the forums as its almost a year from joining, picking people by posts counts isn't fair at all, and i do have a F/S profile here on anandtech, so i don't understand why you or someone else couldn't let me in on the deal...instead of just ignoring my pms...and telling me there are no more left when there obviously was

Hey what do you guys think about using PC2100 DDR in this board? I assume the memory runs asynchronous from everything else, and I don't plan to overclock anything. It's just I have 1GB of PC2100 in my current rig, and would like to use it.

well, then you must not be following the rules as one of the first rules to trading in the FS forum here on AT is to enable your profile (which yours isn't)

what are you going to do with the other parts of your current rig? sell it? then why not sell the ram with it and get new?

No need to complain man... the fact cherrybomb even offered fellow AT'ers the use of his accounts is commendable.

I'm just sickened by the number of people who sour deals with the intent of profiting on eBay. (see link posted by munchies)

FWIW, I didn't get in on the deal since I only stumbled across this thread by chance.

Does this board support bootable USB keys? I can't find anything in the manual, about booting to USB. I want to junk my floppy drive!
