A better source for info on duel celerons is Thresh's FiringSquad (of = Quake Death Match fame). They did a review of duel celerons a while ago. = It gets down to the how and why and gives detailed instructions for = soldering the needed jumpers to get SMP to work on the socket 370 to = Slot-1 cards. There are also links off the review to other duel celeron = sources and recommendations for the best 370 to Slot 1 cards to buy if you = plan on dueling up. http://www.firingsquad.com/hardware/dualceleron/default.asp David A.

This is because intel would like you to use their more expensive CPU's for dual configuartions. With a simple hardware hack you can run dual celerons. There are even adapter boards that now have a jumper so you dont need to do any soldering. http://www.cpu-central.com/ms-6905.html=20 A few manufacturers have announced motherboards with dual socket370's so you simply plug 2 celerons in. http://www.abit.com.tw/english/press/1999/epress30.htm=20 Andrew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
