Except in this case they probably have to flash their bios and check and make sure that the motherboard will be compatible, so its not just like pulling out the old cpu and putting in the the new combo. Also, it seems a little fishy to me about the price (Maybe its not US dollars), but the cheapest ...

I like the different feet. I've got the standard feet on mine, and on my wood floor, it transfers every vibration into the dining room below.
