A nice clean one, too. With 4 days to go, I imagine it'll be bid up to between $150–200.

BTW, we usually refer to these as "F-AT", since FAT means something else (it's a file system).

I purposely referred to this as FAT as a lame pun I guess.

Yo, that's some IBM FAT fo sho... :))

Sweet looking board.  I can't believe they command that much now.  :eek:  I remember just a few years ago they were well below $200.  (Or my memory was bad--one or the other  ;D)

Oh, LOL. I can't speak for everyone, but I love file-system-based puns—always have, always will.

Nope, your memory's fine... Just late last year they were still around $100, but it was clear they'd being going up quickly. Wish I could've talked my wife into buying a few.  :?|

On the plus side, it's good to see so many people getting rid of their FAT. (Early New Year's resolutions?)

Yeah, saw that—wonder what happened to the tabs? Did they pry the case open without a hex driver, and broke 'em?
