Add my vote to the Core 2 Duo 6300. Intel should have had a fire sale on the Pentium D already!

correction, intel should set fire to the pentium D's already, wouldnt be that hard to do, just pull of the heat sink and wait for about 3 seconds.

Fire sale, have them burn in a fire, or use the C4 thermite, I really don't care. Suffice it to say, I really just don't want it in my box! Seriously, Intel should just deep six the Celerons, and sell the Pentium D's as their new budget chip.

The recipe for home thermite is quite easy. You take magnesium, and... wait a minute wouldn't this get me banned, would it?

why would it get you banned? where would you get magnesium ribbons though? thats probably the hardest part with thermite, making it is easy, its the lighting that really hard. i heard that you can mix potassium permanganate and glycerine together to create enough heat to light the stuff too.

At a college chemistry lab. Thermite is a bomb, I don't think I can say how to make a bomb without impunity.

bomb? thermite will burn through almost anything, but how could it explode? all it is made of is iron oxide and aluminium. thermite has to be one of the coolest things ever though, its freaking burning metal!!!

Not sure how hard it is to light thermite, but from experience, if you want to light up a bunch of magnesium, just use a small blow torch.

Profile: Ancient Poster

thermite ignites at around 4000°F, so its really, really hard to light, even a blow torch wouldnt work, strips of magnesium is slightly easier to light, so thats what people use to light the stuff. i wish you could just use a match...

I have no Idea why I am responding to this but if you lay a strip of magnizium over the thermite and ignite the magnizium with a shot of O2 you may have enough temperature to ignite the thermite.
if that dosnt work you can always set a dell lap top over it
