Rather surprised to receive a package from Hong Kong this afternoon. Inside of two layers of thick polythene shipping bag, was a bundle of bubble wrap. Inside that, a sturdy cardboard box. Inside that, another bundle of bubble wrap, containing a sandwich of a plastic chip carrier between two rectangles of high density packing foam. Inside that, with a nice square of antistatic poly foam below its multitude of pins, is an AMD Athlon X4 9952 Black Edition 2.5GHz quad-core processor!
I will resist the temptation to tear down the machine right now, and instead wait until after the weekend before installing!
