Every day I wake up, and find a semi-plausible reason not to order a new
P-III or Celeron-366 chip, mb, and case.

Soon there will come a day when I will have no reason, and I will do it.

Anyway, if I get the Celeron, as cheap as they are, I want to overclock it.
(and how.)  Now I was somewhat-recently visiting a site on overclocking, and
the proprietor had performed 'surgery' to remove the clock-multiplier lock.
Is this really possible? I think if I could get it right in two tries on a
Celeron chip (or two, hehehe) I would think of it as worth it.

Does anyone have info on doing this? Horror stories? I'm not looking for
someone to talk me out of it, if I can't find the info, I won't do it, I
just want to know if/how it's done.  : )
