Factory Unlocked?? How can you tell?

[misle]

I will be receiving a 900 T-Bird tomorrow and I am wondering how you can tell if the CPU is factory unlocked? Code, Color? Are there any websites that will tell me the color/overclockablility of the CPU?

Thanks for the info,

misle

L1 bridges will be cut by lasor from factory, if locked...

I beleive all are locked except the new 1.2 gig's...

just reconnect the L1 bridges with a resist pen, (or lead pencil), and it will be unlocked

a magnifying glass really helps...the bridges are very small
