The issue of ZIF socket 'colors' was mentioned in this months edition
of 'PC Player' a UK magazine.

E. Lock from Huntingdon writes:

	"..just to clarify a point made in PC Player - there is a 32 bit
	Pentium called the P24T. In fact, all P24T chips are 32 bit.
	Many newer boards have a BLUE ziff socket that will take any
	486DX or SX chip as well as a P24T Pentium chip as an upgrade.
	The older DARK BROWN P24T upgrade socketed boards should be
	avoided as these sockets can melt and be a fire hazard."
	

This may be true, but what about the white sockets...... ;-)
