John Wang, This cacheless P-II actually does have an L1 cache on it and suppose to run with 100+ MHz bus. For the next 5-6 months 100 MHz SDRAM will be expensive. With only 3 PCI slots, that is very plenty for any system I didn't even mention network card. DVD ROM's have a PCI decoding card, plus the graphics board. Wavetable sound cards are now almost exclusively PCI now. Intel started the process of buying out Sound Blaster If true, and FTC doesn't stomp on it, we have a useless bunch of wimps in Washington. I heard that Soundblaster was buying Ensoniq, maybe you're confusing that news with Intel buying SB. Sound cards on motherboards would become standard just like I/O, IDE, etc. Intel tried to do that a long time ago, without much success. while you were enjoying your 3rd lengthy vacation in half a year... The price of success, I suppose. Petz
