Hardware prices - can anyone beat these?
 

There's a computer firm by me that has always had the best prices I could find. I don't think they deal too much with the public (mostly large-scale orders), but I wander in there once or twice per year with my friend to buy two of everything to upgrade our computers.

Anyway, we've been thinking about upgrading again in the next couple of months, but I haven't been keeping up with prices, so I am not sure how well they stack up, these days. I just want to list a few sample prices and see if anyone knows of anywhere that can beat them. Keep in mind, I don't pay any shipping with the local place, so the prices need to be low enough to beat out the no-shipping angle.

(I like Athlon, these are All Athlon-XPs)
Athlon 2700+ (266 bus) ======== $382
Athlon 2600+ (333 bus) ======== $326
Athlon 2400+ (266 bus) ======== $215
Athlon 2200+ (266 bus) ======== $181

The above are all retail box, with fan, not OEM. If I wait for the next computer show, they will probably be $20-$30 cheaper. If you know of anywhere that can offer better deals, let me know.

Not so cheap. I can have Athlon 2700+ retail box for $358(but it's not retailer price) & I'm afraid I can't help you, because I'm probably one half of world away from you.
