Paul,

Microcode has nothing to do with the BIOS. It is the internal control of the execution units of the CPU. Intel uses programmable microcode to fix bugs and speedpaths.

BTW: According to Elmer and The Register, 1GHz PIII is just about to come into plentiful supply (after 4 months.) But 1.13GHz PIII's are not.
