Just did a pricewatch check and noticed that 80 bucks can get you this 2500+.
Of course, you could get a (chuckle) 2.3 ghz celeron for the same price.
Or a 1.7 ghz P4... whoops... that costs 100 bucks.
Make it a 1.5 ghz P4.
Reaffirming that, for most people, Intel completely blows.
On the other hand, if you are loaded and want the best computer money can buy, get a P4 w/ hyperthreading.
They are FAST!!!!!!!!!!
And you can OC the hell out of the FSB, from what I've heard.
I'd be afraid to OC a 450 dollar cpu though.
It would be scary as hell putting on that heat sink.
