Hmmm, for $699 it might be one of those "plug into the 286 socket" thingies.
If so, make sure it fits your socket, either PLCC type or PGA type.
Your best bet is to make sure they have a money back policy if your
not satisfied so that if you try it and it doesnt work or is slow as a dog
you can send it back.
