Yousef, BTW, how much faster was the K6-2 400mhz than the Celeron CPU ?? How much faster was the PII/Xeon than the Celeron? Scumbria

Re : Yousef Do you recall the sparkling new mmx pentium versus the normal pentium ??? Gee guess what, without a new bios your brand new $500 pentium mmx would not even boot up...even more interesting, a whole new motherboard was needed to let it run... Changes are a natural thing, and without evolution you wouldn't have typed this message, but you would have wrote it to me and sent it with a pigeon. (long way to fly to - Holland here) So accept the fact that for new hardware to be utilized there need to be changes made to already existing hardware to fully unleash the potential, or at least make it work correctly . Oh that reminds me, did the ball-less (euhm whoops -typo , cacheless) celeron, or not to forget the celeron A, worked without a bios update ? Tell me the answer, yousef. FHWL, Michael da Kota
