Hello Paul; Re "Let's see - Case 1 - The ATHWIPE is SOLE SOURCED ! Case 2 - The ATHWIPE is not LICENSED to any other CPU manufacturers. Case 3 - AMD is RIPPING OFF CUSTOMERS - they should be charging no more than $115 for the ATHWipe - they are SCREWING all the 15 year gamers with Cheerleader AMD Web Sites. Case 4 - The ATHWipe has a PROPRIETARY SLOT - that is NOT LICENSEWD to anybody, requiring every AMD K6 customer to TOSS OUT HIS ENTIRE K6x INVESTMENT - since there is NO UPGRADE PATH ! This SCREWS loyal, stupid AMD customers. (But because they are STUPID, they don't realize they are being SCREWED !)" Man, you are way out of line here. your name calling is WRONG. Best wishes, SA
