 Nice.

 I looked at ME on a friends' system and personally I don't like it.

Well it's an old 433 Celeron with 66 MHz bus long out of warrantee 
and it seems to work perfectly fine with the Micron PCI-100 
PCI revision 1.0 168 pin DIMM unbuffered memory :-)

I even ran a VERY intensive memory testing utility, Linux based,
from a bootable diskette.

Ran it overnight to check out the entire 256 Megs of RAM
and it reported no problems.
