Petz,

This cacheless P-II actually does have an L1 cache on it and suppose to run with 100+ MHz bus. The architecture is getting simply. Before laughing at this architecture too much, prepare to fall off a chair after witnessing the real benchmark performance coming very soon.

With only 3 PCI slots, that is very plenty for any system. Sound cards plugs into ISA. Not to mention, while you were enjoying your third lengthy vacation in half a year, Intel started the process of buying out Sound Blaster. What does that mean? Sound cards on motherboards would become standard just like I/O, IDE, etc.

John.
