Mani:>Ray, the link you provided is for Tbirds (Select at home). The link Milo provided (select at work) is not.

It was Tbird last night for the @work systems! Some inventory tweaking maybe..

I still feel pretty good despite the current chipset situation, here is my spin, there are still quite vast a quantities of classics (and for KX133 based MBs)out there in the channel, looking around at pricewatch you will see still a lot of vendors selling the whole range of classics, e.g. 80 vendors for 800 classic, 70+ vendors for 850 classic and over 50 vendors for 900.....plus a whole lot more not on pricewatch, I notice the prices of classics has moved downward aggressively in the last 3 days, and these are still quite good revenue for AMD, maybe these prices will help move out a lot of classics and KX133 boards which the vendors would appreciate, 3 more weeks of this will deplete a lot of K75 and KX133, by then the KT133 boards will be more ready for prime time and the REAL launch of Tbirds will commence. (I hope AMD and Via actually planned it that way)<gggg

A glimpse of what prices of classics on pricewatch and the official Tbird prices looks like a close out sales.
