Hi,

I've read many threads on Vogons regarding Tualatin chips and Intel's D815eeA2 and the -U versions supporting the Tualatin PIII-S chips. I recently purchased a new in the box -LU version out of haste for my own PIII-S 1.4mhz chip. The board is in route, but I am hoping someone may know:

What does the -LU designation mean and since it has the U, if that would qualify it as a motherboard for a Tualatin (with the correct bios version).

Any insight here would be greatly appreciated!

Ok, I think I read that the -U is universal, not sure what that encompasses, still can't figure out the -L.

Could be LAN as I notice there's space for it.

Mystery solved, .18 micron process AND .13. Should work! I also tend to agree on the L probably meaning LAN.
