Greg - Re: "you will note that the 200 Mhz is not a pentium II. How do you (Intel) lead with last years technology? Is it socket 7? Can an AMD CPU chip be put in it later or only Intel??" I was wrong on that one - it's a 200 MHz Pentium MMx. Yes, an AMD chip can be plugged right in - but only at 200 MHz. Remember - AMD's K6 needs a goosed up Vcc of 3.3 volts to run at 233 Mhz - and Intel's socket 7 Pentium MMX runs just fine at 2.8 volts. Paul
