[geeks] WTB: P3-600 slot1 cpu

[Geek]

That sounds promising. I have yet to find anyone selling AMD Duron
systems anywhere near that low here. They all seem to sell
Celeron's(more profit) or Athlon's(same), or try to max out Duron's to
the limits with every piece of hardware they can find just to make the
same profit margins. Therefore, I can get an Athlon for less than Duron,
or as far as I have seen. You all have to remember, there you have
Circuit City, and a computer store within a short distance.

Our biggest chain is Future Shop, and they rarely have a good price.
There are a few decent small stores, but the best two are too small to
build a low cost system. I thank you, though, Bill for your mention of
this, but it only angers me that our stuff costs so damned much more.
