Don't worry, ryan. The desktop version of Barcelona will be AM2 compatible. As a matter of fact, Asus just released a list on their website of AM2 boards that have updated BIOSs to accomodate Phenom when it comes out (which basically included all of their current AM2 boards). You'll be able to put a new AMD quad core in your AM2 board.

does anyone know how much the Phenom will cost...It quad core right??AMD will release dual and quad core flavors, and folks have suggested as early as November for release of the quad core, but that remains to be seen. I've seen no indication whatsoever of Phenom pricing, but I would bet that with Intel selling the Q6600 for ~$266, AMD will release a desktop quad core with comparable performance for equal or less scratch.

Here's the link to the list of AM2 boards that support Phenom, but as far as I could tell, 1001 was the newest BIOS for the M2N-E. Either that BIOS supports Phenom, or another will be released in the next few days. I'd keep your eyes peeled to make sure.
