You can get screwed by pricewatch if you don't use a site like www.resellerratings.com I find a lot of good cpu/ mobo deals at www.icompz.com Mwave, newegg, onvia, and outpost i believe are good stores also. Sometimes these stores will have better prices than pricewatch.

Yes. The Tbird has 256K total Cache, while the Duron has 192K total Cache. The difference that little bit makes it very pronounced. The Duron will come in WAY cheaper, though at that speed, I'd go with a TBird.
