Sam, <I have a feeling that Duron-based PCs will only be available initially through the top-tier manufacturers (Gateway, Compaq, HP, etc.)...perhaps throughout Q2. They have their own independent contractors building the motherboards for them, so just because we haven't heard much about socket-A MB availability from Asus/MSI/etc MBs available through your local screwdriver shops, doesn't mean there's going to be a significant shortage of MBs. > I more or less share this assessment.
