THIS is you guys fault!!!!!!!!!! :p

Newegg has some of the XP 1600s and 1500s (looks like the 1700s are gone) on sale.

I picked up a pair of XP 1600+ OEMs for $105 to put in that $129 Tyan dually that you guys made me buy. :Q :p

Anyone who wants some cheap XPs (the retail 1600s were $125 each, 1500s are $99, and Duron 1gig and 1.2 gig are avail. too) for crunching, better get 'em now!

1600? 1600? :p

Got my two 1800s for $123 on 3/20 :D (apiece, that is)

I've dropped just shy of a grand at newegg this month. :Q

I already have a 1900 running in one machine and a P4 1.6a in another! Both from Newegg. :Q

I decided to go "cheap" on this since I'm gonna sell my old Duron 700 & T-bird 1.4 to my sisters. Besides, a 1.4GHz ain't bad for a dually. I still have no RAM, no HD, no PS, no floppy, no CDROM, no NIC, no video, blah... :p

Perfect timing.

FedEx just rang the bell...RAM's here!!

I just hope the PC in which I'm replacing the motherboard is the same one in which I upgraded the PS to a 350W jobber...don't think it is...probably only about 230W or something. Means another delay. :(

Yeah but you know those 0.13µs will prolly cost an arm and a leg, right? :p

Figure those'll come down in price, refurbished, by the summer - fall.
