Is there anything wierd about these, other than requireing storage works 
canisters?  They have 266mhz P2 CPUs in them, and can be upgraded to dual.
I'm guessing you can just use any old 266 P2 CPU without funky VRMs like
you have to deal with with ppros.  Memory is a bid wierd.

The Digital Server 5205 and 5210 are 300 and 333mhz machines.  Is it safe
to assume that the 5200 is upgradable just by swapping CPUs?

I'm actually looking at this machine with the idea of upgrading the ram,
installing a PCI nvidia or matrox card, and giving it to my sister.  It's
pretty big, but space isn't really a problem.
