Nice deal on a dual board, I got in on one a long time ago that was Slot 1 (BX) and got a couple cheap PII 300's. Even today, the PII/PIII 100MHz FSB are still pricey in comparison to their performance. So, it's very hard to get a cheap PII/3 dual setup that outperforms an equally/lesser priced single CPU setup w/ AMD or P4.

the dual board seems good for the money, 'cept the memory cap is a bit low. 512?

i was reading about that, its max is 512 due to the 815 chipset.. that is the max for it

btw: thanks for that AT link for the mobo, i couldnt find it at all..
