Good idea, but I am pretty happy with what I have. I won it because I am on the newegg newsletter list apparently. I didn't even realize there was a contest that went with it. Newegg is just where I buy a lot of my stuff from.

Car: 1997 Mercedes-Benz E320, 1999 Toyota Avalon XLS Rep Power: 9 | You can win stuff from the newegg newsletter? Any links? I'm on the newsletter but didn't know about this. Either build a machine around it or ebay it. The Phenom's a solid processor, even if it lags behind its Intel competitors.

All you have to do is be on the list. Just a heads up though. I have been on the list probably 7 years. The processor was 2nd prize, a motherboard was the first and I think third was some kind of software. They do it every month. I haven't gotten it yet, and I haven't decided what I am going to do with it. I have never sold anything on ebay. No one I know would have a clue what to do with it except my ex brother in law and I would rather eat it than give it to him. I certainly don't need another computer, esp one I would have to build.
