What I'd really like is a BP6 with 2 C2's overclocked in the 800 range, running win2K. I think it can be done now, but I haven't checked. As far as I've heard the C2 will NOT do SMP, and getting FC-PGA P3's to run on a BP6 using Powerleap Neo S370 adapters is sketchy at best.... The following URL has most of the details: bp6.gamesquad.net There are other dual processor boards available now (or very soon) that natively support the FC-PGA format. The new ones typically have 133MHz FSB and at least ATA-66, some even offer RAID and ATA-100. The (Microstar / MSI) MS-6321 looks interesting in the dual FC-PGA arena spec-wise with ATA-100, 133 FSB, and AGP4X. But I admit I'm not really in the market for one so I haven't been keeping up to see which board is currently "the one to get". I will agree though, that the ABIT BP6 offered tremendous bang for the buck in its day (dual Celerons with ATA-66 support and excellent overclocking ability). I'm still quite happy with mine, 2 C366 at 528MHz (96MHz FSB and 2.0V).
