        Pretty interesting...  The Pelitier element is pretty expensive I
think...  It seems like I've seen more Abit than ASUS Boards when it's a
FreeBSD box.  We have a 266 running at 400 (100x4) but I don't know which
Pentium II would it be the closest to since this is a cacheless chip.  It
has 384 megs of ram and one thing I can't figure out is that the machine
will sometimes pause for a few seconds when I type a command...
