Not likely. It is totally and completely incompatable with socket7. The work involved to make it compatable would be enormous.

Robert,

If I am not mistaken I read some where that the PII-SX may not even use slot one but use some form of a socket. Maybe they are going to retrofit it to fit socket 7.

If history could be used for reference, Intel might design PII-SX socket free, i.e. soldered directly onto the motherboard as 386SX.
