Re: "If you can remember, can you tell why people thought a 100MHZ bus wasn't possible on socket 7?"

I don't remember anyone saying that it couldn't be done, only that it would be difficult, and it was. The differences between Socket7 and the P6 GTL+ bus get into transmission line theory and clock skew issues and are outside the scope of this forum. I welcome other opinions.
