axemansean $135 is right around my range. i need to keep it below $150 because i also have to get DDR chips.

Newegg also has the Athlon XP2400+ processor for either $77 OEM or $82 retail, retail gets you a free heatsink and fan and their heatsink and fan combo are pretty good.
I have dealt with newegg a lot and would say you'd be better of getting it from there.
Your total would be $142 shipped for OEM or $147 shipped for retail. Pay the extra $5 and get the heatsink and fan.
Don't touch me I'm tender
