it looks like intel has stopped shipping the new P4's due to a flaw in the chip that negatively impacts performance.

Looks like a good time to launch another Intel versus AMD thread.

That looks like the 3.0 GHz 800 FSB model. I haven't seen any of those yet anyway.

From PCWorld:

"As of Monday afternoon, Dell, Gateway, and Hewlett-Packard were selling PCs and workstations on their Web sites with the 3-GHz Pentium 4, Intel's first chip to feature an 800-MHz frontside bus. All three companies were trying to determine how Intel's announcement would affect the availability of their systems. "
