Well, I proved it worked today.  I'm still getting the system up and
running (have to look for another sound card - SB Live! didn't like my
system and I don't have the patience to deal with it) but preliminary
benchmarks show it to be running at least as fast as my P2-400 at
work.
At $171 for the retail boxed processor and $105 for the Abit BH6
motherboard, I'm pretty happy with my $276 combo that might just
perform as well as the $820 combo I would have to buy to get a true
P2-450.  And my cache runs at full speed, not half the CPU speed like
the normal P2.

Now you can have Burnt Celery.
The 300a has the 128k cache doesn't it?
