Snort Chuckle Gasp. What a sense of humor! Intel "moving off in a proprietary direction" -- as if they've ever made anything that wasn't proprietary before! ;^) I doubt Cyrix, AMD, et al will have any problems stealing^h^h^h^h^h^h^h^h reverse engineering anything new Intel comes up with. I have FreeBSD running on several K5s around here, from 75 to 133 "PR." I'll be trying the 166 soon. FreeBSD runs wonderfully on the K5 -- more bang for the buck *always* works for me. ;^) -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
