Amen!  Although, my opinion of the BP6 IDE situation is exacly reversed,
I find that the PIIX4 causes me (severe) problems where the HPT366
doesn't.  Hmmm..... maybe i've been overclocking it a little too much?

Well, the AMD 760 Northbridge is about to come out, and all the recent
harware blurb says a SMP capable 760 chipset should be available in Q1
2001.  

So, I'll probably wait till Q2 2001 before I upgrade my current BP6 to
an AMD SMP solution :) Cuz, even though I don't really notice it, I
can't help but wonder if GTL+ is really doing it for me...
