What is Socket A PGA Processor?

and the t-bird athlons and the durons from AMd are the only processors right now that use socket-a (462 pins i believe)

PGA would be an Array of Pins in a Grid layout.

Ahhh could I be a bigger dork?

No seriously though the PGA suffix to any socket just reffers to the grid of gold pins on the bottom of the CPU.
Any socket based CPU is some form of PGA. There's FC-PGA, PPGA, CPGA...lots of types of PGA. Don't worry about it. SocketA is SocketA whether they mention the PGA or not.

The Duron and Athlon (TBird revision) are currently the only SocketA chips available.

The Athlon4 (Palimino) and the upcoming Morgan core will also be SocketA.
