Hi everyone
I am really wanting to find a dual socket (or better) pentium pro setup, and so far despite looking for an IBM PC Server 365, I haven't found anything.
I stumbled across these - INTERGRAPH MSMT329 PROCESSOR BOARD FOR QUAD PENTIUM PRO 200 which looks to have a 4 CPU setup of Pentium PRO, with the CPU's still installed, however is it something I am not familiar with in terms of can it be used as a PC?
I see it has the usual standard fanfare of serial, vga, ps2 etc based on the pictures, and probably some weird power supply setup - ok solve that later.
It is unfortunately 200 lbs+ and takes up a monster 5U of rack units, probably cost me the same in shipping to get it here as the price, so not very ideal, but if I can't find anything else I suppose it'll do.
Just hoping if anyone can chime in if this will work as I hope, or perhaps is missing something or will require something external as well? From a bit of Googling the older intergraph stuff needed a special keyboard etc to worky....

thanks for any info
