I have been told by others that these are super hard to find.

So I figured I may as well share it 😀 and log my tinkering with it. And try to answer any questions.

It would be pretty cool to make a socket 4 to 7 interposer for it. But it that probably won’t happen 🤣. Would need bus transceivers for one, and there is like nearly zero demand for such a thing.

So4 is rare enough, you got a VLB version - that's really rare.

Also really slow, but I doubt many people today buy a P60 for its high performance 😉
