Neat, when I'm up there and need of a car, i'll look him up. Hopefully, if I drop an ATOT reference, he wont try and sell my rust proofing or charge me delivery charges.

I bought several O\c'ed Compuwiz celerons back in the good old days. The guy was very cool to deal with and shipped very fast.

i just donated a pile of old compucheap "celery combos" to goodwill two weeks ago. They didn't sell at the garage sale. It was kind of sad.

300a@450... those were the days!

Cars don't rust in California, so they don't try and sell rustproofing for them.

sadly, I did not have a 300A @ 450 until after the days, (got one from a dead system @ work only a few years ago) but I did have a PIII 700 @ 933 which was also a well known OC'er :)

Well, maybe they do if you live in Tahoe or similar areas;)

Uh, I think he died and went to heaven. ;)

How ya all doing? I really miss you all, but unfortunately, have little time. We're (family & self ) all doing wonderful. Just working on some property we bought, trying to plan for the construction of a house. I think with costs the way they are, I may just have to drive a few of the nails myself. LOL :)
Peace all!

As Red said, here I am!

300a@464 BH6.... n00bs!

I remeber his website, too bad he couldn't stay as a distributor. It seemed like he ran his bizz well. I was tempted to buy a guaranteed OCable 300a from him, but decided to save the $15 and gamble on it.

I waited and got a 366 to try to OC. Didn't work too well and ended up leaving it at the original speed. Not sure what happened to that machine now that I think about it...
