7:30am PST time, my motherboard is dying, i neeed a new CPU, ugh, i've never done "waiting for front row tickets" like this for a CPU launch, its frustrating.

Well I'm off to work, if you need me, I'll be the guy at my desk, credit card handy, waiting for NewEgg to post.

 
ya, what's going on? My work productivity is basically zero right now. I don't think I'll be able to get anything done until something happens...
 
i think with New Egg they said "lets not post anything until we physically HAVE these babies in our hands" and so we arent seeing any right now

Dude relax and do your job, it will be out soon enough.
 
I just did the online chat with NewEgg to find an expired rebate for my new video card and asked at the end about the availability of the new cpus. She said they expect a delivery today and will update the website to include them as soon as they arrive, however they will not post as available until the processors are in hand for shipment.
 
This just sucks, i called frys yesterday and they said they had them and they couldnt sell till today... Well i went in today and guess what? Renton and Wilsonville are the only frys to not get them yet.... They are "due today".

Ya, ill hold my fricken breath, but in the meantime, ill be calling every hour. Hosers....
 
outpost.com finally has C2D listed. The E6600 Are to ship on the 14th and the 6400 ships today

So I guess that means that newegg hasn't received any shipment yet, at all? That doesn't bode well...do we get to officially declare it a paper launch if by midnight tonight they still don't have any?
 
Either newegg knows they're one of the only companies getting stock today, or they're just plain crazy. I feel like most people interested in the C2D are way too educated about it to fall for these prices...

And they're usually so reliable. What a disappointment.
 
That's like $200 profit each for them. I don't see why anyone would buy one of those from them if they can get them somewhere else for aroudn $220.
 
Haha, that is rediculous.

Although, that might be all they are getting. Fry's in SD says they (and all other fry's stores) only got the 6400 in today, and arn't sure when to expect the e6600 (not today though).

Edit: They are probably charging us for all the bandwidth we wasted 😉
