[SunRescue] OT: dual PPro mb's...

[rescue at sunhelp.org]

Remember 1024k ppros are odd beasts, and almost no systems "support" them,
I can't swear to if they will work in any standard mb.  I have been told
they do not work correctly in the PR440fx boards, and most of the
"generic" or "knockoff" single and dual boards.
