You're right...we're talking about two different things.  (I'm not sure 
which one Dima was referring to.)

The only issue I have with Appendix F is that some of it seems a little
dated ("Jordan's Picks" for motherboards mentions those that support the
Pentium, Pentium II, and Pentium Pro, for instance).  I freely admit to
being the wrong person to try to update this, though I'd be glad to give 
input.

Great...once I get my act together I'll see about doing this, if 
someone else doesn't beat me to it.

Thanks,

Bruce.
