    It will be second most awesome table, after the surface computing tables... this table will probably have more processing power though!
    Will do, but I need all the CPUs first.

    A phenom would be awesome in the middle. I would love to do it all AMD as I'm a bit of a fangurl, but Might have to use Intel too if I can't get enough.

    How big is this table?

    if we know the size then we can approximate how many chips you'll need, and have a bit of a target to go for

    HEXUS Chip-A-Thon anyone?

    edit: I think I've a few kicking around here too

    I need 11 x 11 of Socket A size.

    the table is 55 x 55cm, so 11 plus some spacing will work

    Can always put something else in the middle, but I'm going for at least a border of chips.

    Err.. not that many!

    I shall start a count!

    I do have a Intel i486, but this is a 4cm by 4cm package which I believe is the same size as the newer socket 939s etc. So they may be able to be used too.
    Got a few more promised coming through the post, but I can only really afford to re-imburse postage, if I have to (I'm a bit skint) hence wanting DEAD chips of either 4cmx4cm or 4.95cmx4.95cm packages
