  I was afraid of that.  Well, the VAResearch/VALinux box I got has
as Tyan 1832 motherboard, and the only way to accept a PIII 600 is to
make sure the bois can accept the faster cpu speed.   And I dont want
to flash a new bios just for that fast cpu, because if I mess up, the
bios chip is toast and therefor my production webserver.
