Where did you order your Athlon from?

I am ordering it thru a tech shop in my neighborhood where I take my pc to upgrade ram, do repairs etc.....it may be what everyone refers to as a screwdriver shop. I asked the guy I work with where the Athlon is coming from but he didn't know.

BTW, the last time I was in there, the two bosses came out to talk to me about the Athlon....they are extremely impressed with its performance and stability, and are recommending it to all their customers. There attitudes are a far cry from last Sept where they seem to know little about the Athlon.

They told me that they were surprised that I specifically asked for it since most of their customers know little of the pc innards and could care less which microprocessor is running it. Its why they're able to pretty much tell their customers which microprocessor to use. They thought I may be a gamer and that's why I wanted the Athlon.
