RIP XP

Well, it seems the AMD Athlon XP line of processors are finally gone. While they will still be in stock for the next few months, these last 3 weeks of 2004 will also be the last 3 weeks of the Athlon XP. This little processor, to be replaced by the Socket A/754 Sempron processors, will always hold a spot in my heart as my first real overclocking experience, my first home built machine, and the one I kept breaking things with!

Athlon XP, you will be missed. Sempron, you have some big shoes to fill, but I have no doubt in my mind that you will do it to the best of your abilities.
