this is actually true.
i had the experience on different levels.
1) was in the store to pick up the deal. and the employee at the motherboard sections said they had none in stock. Didn't believe him, went to the front counter / service center. they checked stock and had 6. i was like >=O
2) on a different occasion i went in to the store on friday morning just as it opened. they said they were out of stock.
anyway on a different level. the combo is good if you're building like a cheap budget build or a htpc or something. put in a decent gfx card and this can play your 1080p movies...
FYI, FRY's deals start on friday and end on thursday.
