When do the Athlon Xp 2400 and 2600 come out? The AMD site says sometime in Sep. and I went on a site called some thing like cybertronpcc.com and they had them for sale, but every other site like newegg.com doesn't have them. When do they come out?

If they don't have them it is probably because they only deal with bargain pc parts, and I wouldn't imagine you will get any good deals on those CPU's yet.

If websites sell stuff at knock-down rates when the manufacturer wants the price to stay high for a period of time, they can and do cease all supplies of their products to the seller, IE, if NEWEGG tried to sell the AMD 2400 and 2600 at a low price, then it is likely they would be prevented from aquiring ANY AMD cpu's or other AMD approved motherboards.

I have seen this sort of thing with many manufacturers in retail entertainment equipment/computers/cameras.

Just one possibility.

For instance, has anyone seen a BARGAIN Pentium4 2800 yet?

Even AMD approved sellers don't have them for sale!

Haven't got a clue mate.

I have been waiting to purchase an athlon 2600 processor and have also been looking like you. I did hear though that the release date was going to be Ocotober 1. This may be unture though, because as far as I know, athlon does not comment on unreleased products. Nevertheless, AMD says that it has been shipping for the past 2 weeks, so it will most likely be released by October 10 the latest.
