Elmer - RE: "Why would anyone put a single Athlon in an Alpha board when there are plenty of single processor Athlon boards at a much cheaper price? Nobody's done it because there's no reason to." Aren't Alpha's primarily server chips? Don't you think if someone wanted to sell a high-end single processor Athlon server a company would have stuck an Athlon in a high-end Alpha motherboard which offers more features than AMD 750 or Via based motherboards would offer? Since, as far as what I have seen reported, no one has done this, does it mean that ALL Athlons are possibly defective in uniprocessor configurations? Inquiring minds want to know.
