Hi,
http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/index.html?rb=10134793774&action=c2hvd3N1YmNhdGVnb3J5X3BhZ2U=&subcat_uid=267
If the link breaks just look on www.ebuyer.com under Processors -> AMD
Athlon :)
Hmm.. stock overdue of everything except AthlonXP 2800+ of which they
have 72 - at the moment...
They had one XP3000 - expected 24th August... err that's today guys....
Scan don't even list them, Aria are O/S, Simply don't stock them, and
DABS don't either.
Even Kelkoo drew a blank!
Cupboard seems distressingly bare!
There *are* some on Ebay but if you go there *please* only look at the
auctions that say "Tested *and* working" otherwise you could get
stuffed with one where the seller says "Yeah I tested it.. it was
stuffed... did I SAY it was working?"
Kind regards,
Julian
