Maybe nobody will care, but it looks like the supply of Athlon XP
processors, particularly the 400 Mhz FSB versions are becoming harder to
find.  I realize the pricepoint of the Athlon 64 is close to what the 32 bit
processors are/was, but if you have any unpopulated Socket A Motherboards
around or a Trusty Socket A machine that you have been waiting to update the
processor on you may want to look around now unless you don't mind a used
processor.

Oh yeah, and the sky is falling.
