Elmer:

<<A BGA package is intended to solder directly to the MB if I'm not mistaken so there will likely not be any socket. Someone will correct me if I am wrong.>>

Brilliant idea. I guess users can't upgrade to Mendocino II. That should kill this chip fast.

BGA? A PGA is a pin grid array like a pentium or many other chips, however more pins. They can be socketed or soldered in. I think you have in your minds eye another package?
