Out of interest, is that because you already have the Cedar
Mill chip? My only Pentium 4 experience has been with a
Biostar P4SXQ mainboard with SiS chipset and leads me to be
wary of both Biostar and SiS.
The Pentium 4 chips run too hot for my tastes, but if I
found a Pentium 4-M (a different animal from the 'Mobile
Pentium 4') then I might consider it. I'm not sure those
will work in an ordinary Socket478 mainboard though. Perhaps
someone on the list knows.
