   1.4 Tbird runnin at 1.55 (11.5x135) using old left over pc100 
sdram on an inexpensive Soyo k7vta pro,  $ cat /proc/cpuinfo

cpu MHz         : 1552.506

bogomips        : 3099.85

  Which is about normal. A Tbird 1.33 should get ~2700

  I don't believe so. Yes timings and chipsets are important, but 
even more so is the engineering quality, design, and construction of 
the mobo. You'll never get a PCChips board, for instance, that equals 
a Soyo.  Brand matters _VERY_ much, for performance, stability, and 
reliability

  Back to the subject, this thread'll be back in a few months, but 
it'll read "8.2 Piece of Crap!, I'm going back to 8.1".  Much the 
same way we endured "7.2 Piece of Crap!, I'm going back to 7.1" a 
while back. <current version Mandrake sux> I'm stayin with/going back 
to <older version> posts have always plagued the mailing lists and 
news groups since I started usin Mandrake 6.0. Same with RedHat and 
Slack before that.  Some things just don't change
