Tejek, RE:"Probably this post is inappropriate but I am annoyed that after reading thru this thread just now, it is perceived at least on this thread that the only visible pc with an Athlon inside is a demo." That's the perception that Paul, Elmer and Youseless want to believe. The rest of us know the Athlon motherboards are on the way. Thanks for the due diligence though. Jim

ted: RE: He informed me that pcs equipped with the Athlon WOULD BE IN STOCK TO BUY (NOT DEMO) ON SEPT 9TH. I will call that store again tomorrow and reconfirm this info. I was wondering what you found out today? Today, on my lunch break, I went to a new Best Buy in Bridgeton, MO (St. Louis suburb). They had the standard K7 demo system that Jim spoke about. The salesman said that originally IBM planned to have Aptivas in stock by mid-September, but his store was just told recently that it will not happen. No new ship date was given to the store, and no pricing information was given to them, either. Adam
