From the EE article linked above....

In-Stat analyst Jim McGregor said the current price war between AMD and Intel is the bloodiest in the processor market since the 386 battle more than a decade ago.

Sure looks like you got one heck of a system. Perhaps somewhere along the line I shall get a new system. Going to a new Home Depot tommorow to help with their grand opening.
I stopped by the store today, and got enterance and talked to a few people that had transfered from my current store to this new one. It is huge and super modern. Two level construction. And I was told that people who transfer can expect a few dollar/hour raise.
Who knows. If I impress the Electrical Department supervisor tommorow by doing a good job for them on opening day, I just may think about a transfer. In which case I could justify getting a new system as well as upgrading to DSL from my current 56kb dial up service.
If such where to happen. I will back in shopping mode to find a good price per performance match on a system. So I just may be hammering you for some details down the pike.
