Joe - Re:"But if you have a Socket 370 motherboard for Coppermine, and want to upgrade to Socket 370 Tualatin, you have to trash the motherboard, and get a new one."

Not the 815EEA motherboard in the system that I built. You can upgrade to a Tualatin if desired.

Besides if I want to upgrade in the next year or so, I will build a new PC with about a 3 GHz P4 and DDR. The old PC goes to my wife or daughter.
