    Hello All,
    Does anyone know of an adapter to let an amd K6-2 processor run on a
    Socket A mainboard?

    First guess is this would be like trying to breed a turtle with an
    elephant, but ehhh.. what the hell, the question is free =)

    Your first guess is correct. You have absolutely no chance!! Worth asking
    though!

    Yeah, the cheapest I've seen is called a Duron, or I've seen some
    older ones given away. Sure speeds that old K6 too.:)

    thanks anyway. I guess AMD is coming out with something called a "Geode".
    From what I understand, it's low power/low heat for low end processing needs.
    Kinda what I'm looking for.. just thought I'd pass it on.

    VIA already concentrates on this. C3 and Eden lines of cpu's.
