Jim: there has been a total worldwide recall of Athlon XP CPU's...this is straight from the Inquirer. Reasons not divulged, but it is consistent with the complete absence of any advertised systems with those chips in the last week. The week prior BestBuy was advertising a few systems...not anymore. BTW, those systems were being advertised and priced at the true Mhz speed (e.g. 1800 advertised as 1.53 Mhz), which would suggest that AMD's strategy of "convincing" the endcustomers is failing. Gary
