Well, I've noticed there still is an abundance on the forums stating that the core 2 duo is a "paper launch" and still unavailable. And it seems to me that the majority of people will want to either purchase the e6300 or the e6600 (in which they will overclock to match the more expensive flavors of c2d). Well I'm just going to put the word out there, that the e6300 has been in stock and available to order since last friday on zipzoomfly, when I ordered myne, at http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/Prod [...] Code=80858
