   Original Intel boxed cpu, with over 1 year left on three year
warranty.    Used in home machine,  maybe 8 hr wk/avg. 
Works fine; as a boxed unit, comes with excellent Intel heatsink &
fan.  Still have box, manual, etc.  $55.00 plus shipping - I'll Fedex
2nd day for $5.00.

Or drive to any of the local computer stores and get a brand new Cyrix
6x86/233MHz (MMX) processor for $60.  I just did this very upgrade and
it is a lot faster than a Pentium 150, all for the same price.

There are many computers that cannot take the mmx cpu or clock it to
233Mhz. Upgrade it to run at 150Mhz for $55 is not a bad idea (if you are
still running at 75 or 100Mhz), without changing the motherboard.
Cyrix 6x86/233 is running very hot and you need to buy a very GOOD
heatsink/fan for it.
