   ^^^^^^^^^ - Is this your phone number? When I dial it all I get is
   "Your call could not be connected. Please check it and try again"

Anyway, how recent a BIOS would be needed for the 5x86? Do you also have
motherboards suitable for the chip? If not, is there anything particular
to look out for in a m/b to suit?

Later,
Tony.
