Is it true that two Pentium II 400 have to have a same number of some kind
to use them in dual mode. I'd intended to buy a dual board and add a new
proc. to my 400 but someone told me that wouldn't work

Yes this is true, to some extent. YOu have to have two processors with
the same stepping and revision in order to dual-proc them. I have heard
though, that you can have two processors of different stepping and
revision numbers and still multi-proc them, but your performance may
suffer a little.
I've got three old IBM PS/2 #70s. There looks to be an extra socket for
a processor on the motherboard. I don't know if it would really help to
speed up the system or not as they only have 4 MB of RAM, or even if it
would work. I was thinking about trying to add a processor to one of

I can't recall any ps/2 model being able to run a dual processor setup,
definitely not the old ones. What the other socket is for is most likely a
coprocessor, or FPU, which would speed things up a bit when running programs
that have the capability of using an FPU, like CAD/CAM applications,
