Boy, you do a simple thing like overclock a P133 to 187.93 MHZ and FreeBSD won't 
hardly boot up half the time!  Where's the quality control!?!?!!

I'm just joking folks!  I just wanted to see how fast I could go.  Nothing could 
be stable with a 41% gain.  By the way I love all the little tools that are 
hidden, just waiting to be discovered(/usr/local/lib/lmbench/bin/bsd/mhz, for 
example)!

I was impressed that FreeBSD would handle that at all!  Winblows 95 wouldn't 
even boot.  I was using regular EDO RAM, so maybe if I got the expensive stuff 
it would work out better.  I went down to 166.99 mhz and so far everything seems 
to run fine.

You guys are Da' Bomb!
