[CLUE-Tech] Upgrading Dell R400 processor

This is a workstation. It is the motherboard that's stock with the Dell
RSX400. I am not at my machine, so don't know its designation.

I believe that the PL-iP3 uses its own circuits to map the correct voltages
and pins from the Pentium socket to the Celeron chip.
Thanks for your input.
Mike

Um, I'm assuming you've already done this, but make sure you check 
voltages, etc etc etc.  

As well: Is this a server, or a workstation?  
If it's a workstation, what kind of motherboard?  I've got an ASUS P3B-F 
motherboard that will allegedly take the same CPU on the ASUS 
slocket-adapter.  That would speed my system up a bit. It's a 550 Celeron 
(OCed from 366) right now.
