Dear All,
According to a web page i have found it's possible to use a celeron on a dual
pentium board. The link is: http://bxboards.com/dual.htm ,
http://www.cpu-central.com/dualceleron/index-dc.html ,
http://www.ocean.ic.net/mail/archive/lugwash-archive/0722.html ,

It of course at your own risk. According to the web pages it works. I myself would
advice a Socket 370 celeron and a adapter pcb to slot one as you won't loose
warranty on the celeron chip when it'll be defective.
Regards,
Joop Boonen.
