Well,... I brought a new cruncher online tonight 
Sad to finally retire the old K6-2 500 (oc'd to 550) it served me well for many many years, but it was falling apart,... literally. So far so good on the new machine,.. nuthin' fancy (Gigabyte GA-K8VM800M, skt754 2800+, 512mb HyperX PC3500, Lite-on 52x CD, and an 80gb WD hd all mounted in a Super Lanboy) temps are ok, 104 f. at 100% load and 88 f. idle. Dunno about the blue lights, but it is nice and quiet. Now if only I could OC it (no PCI/AGP lock) :frown: Seems slower than my A7N8X Deluxe 2500+ oc'd to 3200+,... thought the 64 would have an edge over the OC'd XP,.. oh well.
