[rescue] SSA Problems

[Mike Nicewonger]

As Ken says, they are supposed to only do 2 way SMP. However I have had 4 of
them alive and well in an ALR Quad6. I can tell you that if you have a Compaq
Proliant 800 (2 x PPro) they will not work in that machine.

I am building a new desktop box using the Micronics W6-LI board and 2 333 PPro
upgrades. Should work nice since the Proliant I am using as my desktop is quite
snappy.
