Craig,
RE:"Not that it matters much when you can get a retail CeleronA/400 with
fan for $157, push it to 450-500MHz, and wait for the forthcoming
K7/Coppermine battle to play out"...

What happens when your peripherals crap out when you run them out of spec at 37.5 or 41.75 MHz because you are running at 75 or 83MHz bus?
My Maxtor HD won't overclock run for instance.
Not only that but the later Celerons and PIIs have the CPUID imbedded.
No thanks...
Jim
