Hi

Long time computer user/electronic engineer, first time CPU collector. Just thought I would say hello.

Do you have any tips for the beginner in collecting CPU's?

On a side note can debs stop bidding on the same auctions I bid on Shocked Embarassed Wink

Hi and welcome!

Unlike Marcin, my top tip would be to work out what you want to collect, otherwise you are going to end up bidding on everything.

We are all more or less n00bs here. Every day there are chips we never seen before.

Welcome! icon_wave

And all others not registered or just reading the threads, say hello here!

(I think there are more people here than "the brave twenty" who nags in every thread)

But I like giving everyone a hard time! hehehe

You're all safe for a while - I need to start making some money before I can buy a lot more (although there are a few items I'm watching that I'll just have to find a way of buying...)
