Usually Canadians get screwed over. We can only look at the Newegg prices but they never ship up here so we're screwed.
Not this time. NCIX out of Vancouver has great service and cheap shipping and they've just listed the Q6600 at $289 CDN which beats the Newegg price.
There's still no guarantee that you'll get a G0 stepping unless you call them up and ask for sSpec Number SLACR.
If you don't want to take your chances then how about an E6750 for only $206.99 CDN. I don't need one but at that price I sure as hell want one! Maybe one of each just to see what they'll do.
3.92 GHz with the OEM cooler should put a smile on anyone's face.
