Hi Mick:

I went from a P166 to the Intel Overdrive P200MMX and it moved
up performance 25%. Now I hear that you can go to P233 with some
other chip and the third is Called a WinChip which will take
you to 240MMX. My overdrive was quite expensive as upgrades go
but it has worked fine for over a month now so I am satisfied.

I am going to look into the WinChip however and may move up to
it just to see how things go.

Let's ask the list what they think of the WinChip 240MMX and
see what they think.

Michael
