I purchased a COUNTERFEIT Cyrix CPU recently from a comapny in Houston, I am
not sure if I can post the name here, but, If anyone would like to know, send
me e-mail, and I will reply and tell you. Send it to machine1@juno.com
The Counterfeit CPU looks ALMOST identical to a *real* one BUT, if you look
closely (with a jewelers loop) you will see that the ink is splotchey, the
letters are NOT even, NOT squared off, and the silkscreen is poorly done. I
have a scan of the COUNTERFEIT cpu I will send to anyone who wants to see it.
DO NOT plug the CPU in, it MAY destroy the motherboard, as some of these are
copies of UNRELEASED cpu's (as is this one)
Thanks,
           Terry
