Paul, these $253 P2-300's are almost certainly remarked p2-233's and p2-266's. How else do you explain the fact that Intel's quantity 1000 price for the P2-300 is $380, with a scheduled price cut to $310 in 3 weeks. tomshardware.com The $253 P2-300's are stolen, remarked or "removed from equipment" chips. Instead, compare the price of the boxed, 3 year warranteed K6-300 to the boxed, 3-year warrenateed P2-300. Here's what you'll find: AMD K6-300: $255 Pentium II-300: $365 Add in the $40 savings for comparable AGP motherboards and 25 watts less heat dissipation and you can see why K6-300 systems are selling like hotcakes.
