I've been running a P-II/266 for months, overclocked at 300 even. It works
flawlessly. It blows the hell out of my PPro/233. Hands Down, left right,
forwards, backwards, and inside out. And I dont give a rip if its Slot 1,
Slot 3, socket 8, or a bunch of wires glued to a CPU. I buy motherboards and
processors together, and I dont give a rip what the connection is. I require
performance for my apps, and there's nothing on the planet that will
(currently) touch a P-II/300.
