Mntsnow,

Thanks for the heads up! It never ceases to amaze me the lengths someone will go to $crew someone else.

Let me dole out the punishment when they're caught. Hmmmmm, lets see...K7 suppositories!!!

Might put an "end" to that crime...

Yep http://www.sysopt.com/forum/frown.gif I true figured it was just a matter of time before someone did a "pro" scam on those (that model to be exact) as like the computernerd mentioned all so far were remarked to 650's (which most of the 500's were made out of 650 cores to begin with) so it was "easy" to do.

I know it is dodgy, but at the end of the day they ordered Athlon 650's, and the chips they recieved were Athlon 650's.

Still sucks, though.
