4) Adjustable CPU multiplier - x6,x8,x9,x10,x11,x12,x13,x14 (some other Pentium M series may also have up to x21 multiplier)
Btw for the record for people like me wondering what multipliers are supported (not sure if multiplier support is a mobo feature or not), at least x17 does work.
My board came with 1.3 GHz Celeron so upgraded it to Pentium-M 735 (x17) and it just works. Mine had reasonable amount of thermal paste applied from the factory, so i guess it depends on person who puts it together 😀 Changing CPU was a pain like said earlier in this thread as there is no heat spreader and I am no stranger to ruin CPUs by chipping chunks out of the core by misaligned heatsink (those old AMD Duron etc. CPUs).
Pentium-M 735 was easy and cheap to buy, anything above (745 -> x18, 755 -> x20 -> 765 -> x21) and price will jump considerably...
