   Hey Tony!   
      
    TL> long before 6x86_64 processors came along.   
      
   About 2003-ish.  The dual p3 system was already an oldtimer at that time but I   
   didn't want to upgrade until the 64 bit processors became readily available.    
   Other than the motherboards back then, the p3's were absolutely great but once   
   the board started acting up I could see the writing on the wall and   
   begrudgingly retired them.  Funny but I still had a working 486 back then that   
   lasted a few more years.   
      
   Life is good,
