Dan 120/40 - Re: "By the way, did you happen to get a chance to look at the pictures of Athlon chips and motherboards for sale in Japan at:" None of those modules looked like the real thing - they looked like Marketing Mock-Ups. In fact, the big ATHLON sticker is the INVERSE in colors from the one appearing on AMD's Web Site: amd.com The Japanese stickers are WHITE with a large AMD logo and ATHLON in black, small letters at the very Bottom. The AMD Web Site has a sticker that is 3/4 BLACK with just ATHLON (in WHITE) written on the bottom in the black area - and AMD AND the AMD LOGO written in the white space above. It appears you believe that phony mock-ups are the real thing - $800 CPUs sitting on shelves WITH NO ANTI-STATIC protection or shielding ! No wonder you got suckered into buying AMD ! You are GULLIBLE ! Paul
