That Abit BX-6 was plaguing me in my dreams

Once again, in the wee hours, when I should be asleep, I waked up, and the last thing I was dreaming involved the PC referred to in this thread! Of course, it was out of context in every way, but at least there was nothing nightmarish about the dream.

I almost went into my shop and finished up the system still on the work table in breadboard to clear space to set that screwy P2 system up again (both are P2s, one is an Abit, the other is an Asus). The Asus is "normal" about its W2K vs Win98se dual boot -- no easily perceived speed difference there.

Well, that's what I told you before.

What I haven't located for that one, is its own WINE (I suppose just Fedora in general?)
