I just got a Prescott 2M core. While it's marketed as a P4, it's got
all the features of the Xeon Nocona core enabled (except for MP
support, of course): MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, HT, EM64T, EIST and XD.

The question is whether or not the AMD64 build of FreeBSD - which runs
on Nocona - will run on this. If someone knows for sure it won't run,
they'll save me the time of trying it.

	Thanks,
