Does the dx2-50 have a 50MHz rc circuit on-die that is phazelocked to the 
input clock, or does it have some magical ciruitry that actually doubles the 
input clock?

ie If I take a i486DX2-50 and feed it a 30MHz clock, will it (if properly 
coolled) run at 60MHz or at 50MHz with an asymetrical clock?
