Whoops, based on the below link, the Opteron X12 6124 running at 1.8G 16MB 65W 6400MH 45NM Tray Magnycurs can be had from Provantage for only $470.20 each. Provantage has 39 of the 1.8G cpus in stock. Below it is show the Opteron X12 6174 2.2G, which costs $1226.93 each, and must be special ordered. The 6124 1.8G is less capable than the 6174 2.2G, I guess.
