After reading the very well written xeon 2.0 sticky i went to intel's site and started looking at a chipsets. I noticed that the E7051 supports pentium M. Would it be a good idea to run 2 pentium M's i mean heat wise ya but whats the best OC on them things do they have HT are they cheap. Only problem i see is the ddr233 and no pci Express
 
Pentium M is socket 479 (or at least a different 478), e7501 is socket 604. The chipset probably supports them on a lower level, but physically it doesn't match up. Also, anything single-core doesn't have the SMP logic in the chip to handle dual CPUs.

There is a rumor going around of a Xeon version of the P-M coming out sometime, codenamed Sossaman. That'll be 2006, though.
