fair enough so about $12 AUD then for me...thats probly more than the CPU is worth!

what's up with all these lucky people finding free cpus even if it's old. I want to have some piece of old nostalgia.. Seems pretty awesome to have a piece of old computer hardware.

The 550 was my 2nd CPU. I also found on the roadside! Sold it to upgrade to a Thunderbird 1.4. It is amazing how far processors have come. I have a XP2400+ now and it blows the doors off the 1.4

when I went from a duron 1GHz to the 2400+ XP (not this xp-m I currently have, I have both XP-M and XP of the 2400+) it was like night and day basically. Couldnt believe the awesome speed. BUT now that I know CPU's better I realize that chip sucks with it's mere 266FSB and 256k L2 Cache...unless you can get a barton core 2400+
