My PPro200 is running stable at 225MHz and has been doing so for tha 
last 3 years.
MY Dual P2 266 is running 300 and is also stable.
They both become unstable if I set them any higher. That goes for 
windows NT also, but ofcourse only if I stress it as mutch as I do with 
FreeBSD. Both boxes are running SetiAtHome.

My 1.2Gh athlon has not been overclocked yet, because I don't wan't to 
put larger fans in it.
