The wait...

Being relatively new to the Anandtech forums and taking my first look around throughout today ive come to notice that there are a lot of people here waiting for things to be released.

Unashamedly, im now one of them.

Im waiting for Gigabyte GA-K8NXP-9 to reach Australia.
It was expected Mid/Early December.
 
I am waiting for...

X800 XL
Dell 2005 FP (Just need another paycheck 🙂 )
A good Nforce 4 Board 🙂
 
I'm waiting for:

dual cored A64 chips
appropriate nForce motherboard for the above, not rev. 1.0a either 🙂
WinXP x64 Gold (beta is ok but I like GOLD!)
x64 drivers for all my hardware
x64 versions of my favorite games

some a$$hole to buy my current compaq celery so i can get a real computer

ebay
FS/FT


thanks for the advice.... i'd rather sell it locally. computers are hard to sell for a good price, add shipping and stuff and i won't get what i want out of the deal. currently i have someone who might buy it for 200 U.S., that'll take care of the processor i want. lol another 350 for a mobo and video card and i'll be set (yeah right).

Could you not just order it from a US website that ships internationally, such as outpost.com?
With the US dollar in such a poor state, this really is a cheap option right now.
I've done this a few times and I usually see the goods within a week (to England)
 
I'm VERY MUCH waiting for nForce4 boards to be released so I can start thinking about what I want (will also need to find a good PCI-E card that's an upgrade for me but still affordable).

you forgot "peace on earth" and "eternal life" 🙂
 
Heh, some of that stuff is not too far off. The latest WinXP x64 is actually pretty nice. The hardware stuff may be a while to come yet.
 
The big question...

Ive heard timeframes from retailers and manufacturers saying anytime between "Late November and Mid January" ... which falls under the general, annoying descriptive term:

soon.

 
been waiting over a year and a half for a new comp 🙁 Now just in the final stages of waiting on a Giga-byte Ultra board 😛 I was hoping to beable to order this stuff around Christmas but looks more like January 🙁 Also waiting on a anandtech review to totaly convince me of which board 😛

Still waiting for the 128bit CPU. Should be here in 5 years or so.

You mean, 2^64 worth of memory addressing space still isn't enough for you?

Current CPUs can already handle processing 128-bit chunks of "multimedia" data at once. (SSE2, AltiVec, PS2 and DC console's vector-processing units, etc.)
