Pentium D 820 for $241.39? Come on. Conroe is out. Plus, any Athlon X2 is cheaper than that today.

Xbox360 for $490? THis is not hte initial release. Shortages aren't a problem anymore.

Opteron 165? Good 2 months ago, not anymore.. not for $397.54 at least..

As of right now (7/25) most vendors do not have the Conroe chips in stock yet. What's the point in telling people to buy products that aren't available yet?

I tell people to wait for something new to come out before buying it, which is basically telling people to buy products that aren't available... it seems to work for me.

Considering:

1) AMD Price cuts
2) Conroe IS in stock

it's good.

But the Xbox? That's stupid.
