Since a pentium comes in such a wide variety of speeds, a 596 is not
necessarily faster or slower than a pentium, nor will that pentium
necessarily overload the bus.  It just depends on how fast the chip is.
We  can say with assurance that a 486 board can use a 133MHz processor.  I
think it also reasonable to assume that a 300+MHz processor would melt your
board.  It's all about moderation and details.

Failing for having moved too fast sets you back farther than caution would
have.
