Does Athlon run with PC66-memory?

Does anyone know if, and under what circumstances you can use old PC66-SDRAM with a Duron/T-bird (socket-A) motherboard?
I need new server-hardware for myself (maximum performance is not very important), and I already have plenty of PC66-RAM. I could of course go with a Celeron, but I prefer not to...

Not unless that memory will OC to 100 instead.... minimum on a SocketA board is FSB (Or 100).
 
Depends on the chipset - the most popular one, VIA KT133 can run CPU/RAM at 100/100 or 100/133. KT133A adds 133/133 mode. No 100/66 mode (and no 133/100 mode either)! AMD 750 is 100/100 only, and running the shared-memory-VGA SiS 730S off PC66 RAM would be a very stupid thing to do, even if it works.
