Of slots, sockets and CPUs

[mjc]

Here is a link to answer some if not all the slot/socket questions......The CPU Index (http://www.redhill.net.au/iu.html)

It has most of the info upto last year, little current info and not all the variations, just the most common, but it is a good place to start....

And here is one that offers some general info on slots....Inside Computers (http://library.thinkquest.org/C006208/data/system-chipset.php)

(Yes this is a double post, and not wanting to offend anyone I am putting here just because I think it is some good info and I don't want it to get lost.....I've thought long and hard about this, and I think that this info does deserve a spot of its own.....)

Good links guys, thanks.
Oh, and btw... the long-overdue project to bring The PC Guide's CPU coverage up to date is now underway. Though it will take a few months due to the number of concurrent projects running.
