Nope Slut kits dont exist for those.

Only Suck it 370 has Slut kits for them.

I've seen pre-production units, but never anything later. They only worked with AMD Irongate chipsets as the VIA KX133 had timing issues which the slotket couldn't fix.

No, there are no slockets for TBirds, but there are SlotA thunderbirds, I know, I have one (check out my gaming rig)

It runs awsome and most current SlotA boards support them. My MSI 6167 does and it was one of the first boards out!

hahahah!
SocketA to SlotA converters!
Don't I wish!
No you have to work your arse off to find a SlotA TBird if you have a SlotA mobo.
And of course Via the whore's KX133 doesn't work with TBirds, even SlotA ones.
If you are lucky and got into the Athlon scene pretty early and have and AMD751 north bridge board (Asus K7M for example) then you can use a SlotA TBird but the later boards with the Via north bridge (Asus K7V for example) and you are SOL.

Wasn't Abit working on one? Whatever happened to that?

I believe that Tom Leufkins was working on a Slotket and a German site had some. AFAIK, none of them worked with KX133 mobos, only 750 Irongate.

I wish there were ones but instead you could always get a Slot A T-Bird as suggested. I also have one and it rocks.
