I was wondering if anyone went to the previous giveaways and what kind of XPs they were giving out and how many people were at the previous events so that I could know my odds of getting on. Ok thanks.

I was at the one in Seattle. there were about 2500 people there and I actually won!!! I got a XP 1800+ (I did not check the stepping), MSI K7T 266 pro-RU, and a cooler-master that is not even approved for the 1800+ :)

all in all, about $370 worth of stuff (newegg prices) It was an awesome time, they even gave out some t-shirts and tool kits.

I have the 1800+ up and running in my ECS K7S5A, and it is working beautifully, though the board has a hard time overclocking it... no biggie really, 1.53 ghz should be enough :)

The one in San Fransico was the first, and only like 250 showed up, then there was like 800 in Boston, and here there was 2500. I am not sure how big it was in philly, but I imagine it was even larger. I would go anyway... you just never know if you are going to win. I mean, I have never won anything before now

actually about 2500 in seattle, at least, thats what the AMD people said. They stopped their official count at 2000, but they estimated over 2500
