Kernel (uname -r): 2.4.23
Distribution: slack 9.1


very fast and powerful. it was much cheaper (back when i bought it) than the comparatively powerful p4s.
i have no complaints whatsoever, other than the exposed chip on the processor. feel much safer putting a heatsink on one of intel's armor plated processors than this chip. very good linux compatibility.
unlike siddiqu, though, i see the bus speed in dmesg


~$ dmesg | grep bus
..... host bus clock speed is 334.0880 MHz.

No problems, but tally one more for the 'no FSB reported' camp. :(
