A;; I can say ia, 6 months is too damn long. As much as I hate lose the KB tradition, and as nice as Ken is, the money down and money put out when it's supposed to be 2 weeks out then being 2-3 months out ie unacceptable in this business. There are already too many making all of us wait with the money up first tradition. I for one, am glad I ordered a World cast for my build. HP Performance, try them......
