Petz, This is another confirmation of K6-3 400MHz short supply. I've been monitoring the lowest price of k6-3 400 at Pricewatch. Within the last few days, the lowest price of k6-3 400 has gone up to $80 from $73. Also, the number of dealers offering "ASUSTECH" motherboards at Pricewatch, has been tripled from two to three days ago [ brook.pricewatch.com ] Regards, Goutama

Petz - Re: "How many graphics boards 2 years ago had more than 8M of memory? Today many have 32M. " And how many of those 8 MB graphics boards from two years ago were UPGRADED to 32 MB of memory ? Probably less than 0.01% !! That's the POINT !!!! As time marches on, people BUY NEW PCs/components instead of upgrading the old ones. In two years, I'm sure RAMBUS or DDDR motherbaords will be available with 512M/1024 MEg, etc. How many AMDroids are pulling their hair out now that their SooperDooper 7 K6-2 motherboards are NOT UPGRADEABLE to AthWIPES ?
