Hello Herb,

I still use an AMD 5x86 133 at work but I have it overclocked to
160mhz I find it quite adequate to run all of my work applications.
If you are not interested in the board and the chip get in touch and
I'll buy it from you (have a neighbor who is a single mom and she
really would like a computer for her son....I've got him using one of
my old 486's (a DX50) but it uses 30 pin ram and I'm not about to
populate the board with more than the 8megs it now has at 30 pin
prices.

regards,
Bob Chapel
