Sure it isn't a 266MHz? No... You have the XL233 and XL266. Then there are the XL300 and XL366. The latter are the more desirable ones, 21164 instead of the 21064 etc. And a sensible memory interface. XL233/266 CPU boards could be retrofitted on a x86 PC (Celebris IIRC) -- Wilko Bulte Arnhem, the Netherlands wilko@freebsd.org http://www.freebsd.org http://www.nlfug.nl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
