When the Intel Pentiun V comes out, the Athlon 64 should drop in price. It's hard to say when to buy becuase the high tech world is constantly changing.

What is top of the line today is antiquated tomorrow.

Jester, if you live in a major electronics retail area and do not want to wait until next year for upgrades, then I suggest buying your computer/parts the day after thanksgiving.  You will not find lower prices on the high performance stuff any other time of the year.  Get the morning paper's ads before the stores open, plan which stores you intend to visit, show up before the doors open and get ready to battle those who will kick and elbow there way to the limited supply of sale items.

thats why they invented tazers and pepper spray for:)

If  you want a computer that isn't going to be out dated for 3-4 years, get a "super computer"  -They are roughly $14, 000, and they feture 8.3GHz 64 bit prosecessors, 2 gig of ram, 240 GB hard drive, ATI 9800 256 MB graphics card, 2.8 FSB, Etc etc

Oh sure, $14,000, you can just find that amount of money just laying around anywhere!
