Well 736ukp for m/b *&* CPU would be good, only it's not ;)
It's 735 for P6-200 on its own. An Aurora m/b is a further 499.

- B0 stepping of the Orion chipset is essential re PCI problems.
- There are rumours of P5 & P6 price cuts likely in May & August.

Patience re bug-sorting in Triton-II (P5) & P6 chipsets remains
the best advice, irrespective of the price-cuts due shortly.
