[clug] Old PII processor please?

[Antti.Roppola at brs.gov.au]

There were heaps at the markets at one stage for about $25 each.

The HP dual PII's (i.e. Kayak XU, XW) also require a voltage
regulator that is impossible to find if it's not already installed.

There were also some other gotchas regarding revisions I don't recall,
but it was pretty easy to Google for.

Subject: [clug] Old PII processor please?


Possibly an odd request, but I'm hoping someone has a working Pentium-II
cpu at 300 Mhz suitable for use as a second processor in a dual-processor
box which they don't want anymore. I have a dual-processsor board with a
single PII-300 on it, and I'd like to make it dual-processor.
Or is there something more to this? I seem to remember you needed matched
pairs at one point - any experts want to tell me I'm not going to get a
working system here?
In case I do need to say it, yes I am intending to run linux (exclusively)
on this box. I'm prepared to pay a (small) sum for it, and collect from
anywhere in Canberra.
Conrad.
