Yeah nice cover up. Have you seen the box? It has spelling mistakes on it, why recreate the box when you could just use legit ones and put fake CPU's inside?

864502 2010-03-07 03:40:00 Ssshh. There's still a few left to sell. R2x1 (4628)
864503 2010-03-07 06:15:00 Wish I could shop on Newegg...

Their prices are SO much cheaper. If only international shipping didn't cost an arm and a leg.

Am thinking of buying an SSD on it and getting a friend to ship it over without the box and just in bubble wrap... might work out quite a bit cheaper.

My X25-M cost me $150NZD less and I had it sent via EMS so more than just saving a bit. I wish I had the power to have just the SSD sent, would of been even cheaper :blush:

Saw the prices of the 30GB Vertex's going for like $80USD :(
