I advise you to go to another computer store, as this one is clearly
swindling you. You can get a boxed Sempron 3000+ in France for less than
35 euros... And a mainboard for less than 55 euros, so if it is three
times more expensive, I wonder when you were able to find brand new
mainboards for 32-bit CPU for lower than 20 euros...
