	The celerons have the necessary pins to support multi-processing,
but intel lists them as reserved in the data sheets.  I do know that MSI
(MicroStar) has released a PPGA->Slot1 converter with a jumper that
connects the pins.  All you have to do is use two PPGA celerons and two of
these converters and it works.   There is some more information
available(part numbers and a picture) at http://www.cpu-central.com/

	Before these you had to do some soldering on the boards to get it
to work.
