We went to the one in Orlando Florida. Amd did a much nicer job then last year, and my buddy brought home a 2100+ cpu.
We promptly unlocked it and ran it up in my machine with some pretty good results for a *free* cpu! :banana:

and get there an hour or so early to check in for a little
VIP treatment from the AMD folks

Bummer, wish they were doing Pittsburg instead of Philly I can make Pittsburg in about 1.5 hours, Phillys like 5.5-6 hours depending where they are at, can't do that would have to stay overnight and I can't swing that right now.

Answered questions for shirts and hats (I had a few correct answers), the first CPU when I walked in the door and the second when I left.

The laptop bag was part of the stuff from answering question in battles of the boxes.

Great news Fugger!!! Wish they had the 2400's when they were here!!
But free cpu is a free cpu!! The 2100 is kewl to play with also!

Heh. Fuggar, ur not the only one to walk outta there w 2 cpus. Got one for getting called to the panel, and one as part of the consolation prize when they disqualified us. Along w $2400 less than what I should have gotten. My build smoked his.

Pretty pissed by the way it turned out. But hey, I walked out with 2 2400's and the promise of a $100 check. More than I walked in with.
