Tis a sad and woeful day! Be careful on your christmas shoping lists!! All new AMD bartons are being shipped with locked multiplyers.
I think it started about a week and a half ago. No physical differences have been seen in new chips so far. Most CPU's made post week 39 are locked. Good chance all lower rated Athlon XPs week 43 and later are locked and many of the week 39 through 42 are as well. Some CPUs are coming in un-locked. No wire tricks seem to work.
Sad, Sad day.
Link will be coming shortly...
