  I hope not.  I've got a PPro mb that supports clock rates up to 266mhz,
and I would like to get a chance to do that someday.

  According to whats been said here, a PPro should perform better than a
PII, if running at the same clock rate.  Hopefully Intel will allow the
PPro to run at 233 and 266 in the future.
