Re: "So why couldn't they find anyone to pay for this particular lot?"

Obviously SBC is willing to pay for it. In fact, given the shortage of CuMines, SBC is willing to pass up Athlons and stand in line for CuMines....:-)

Dan - RE: "Giving your stuff away dirt cheap or as premiums never helps a brand or product look good. I'm probably the only AMD long who is disappointed to see Athlons in the eMachine lineup. I'd rather see Athlons warehoused than advertised in eMachines.

Just because eMachines is good enough for PIII, doesn't mean it's good enough for Athlon."

I agree with you. I have a rant on the other thread. ;)

eMachines is the dumping station for AMD and Intel.
