I'll get one sometime around September. Gives AMD enough time to come out with newer steppings! ;)

This one will be all new. Only if the prices are right though! I'll be damned if I'm going to pay $250 for a chip. :p

Yeah no kidding, but with the "price slash" I'd be happy picking up a few XP2100's relatively cheap.

Hey, at least thank God we aren't Intel fans!
You'd have said "I'll be damned if I'm going to pay $800 for a chip"
LOL!

Eventually the 2100 will be under $100. That might be the deal when the time comes!

Me too! Folding really doesn't seem to hog my system like SETI did. I still shut it off when I'm surfing.

Folding dosen't effect surfing too much for me, but it makes the temps jump.

I have noticed one thing....it takes the TB a lot longer to complete a WU than my XP. :( Maybe it's my KT133A!:(
