My understanding is Socket A is only for AMD CPUs. However, I found someone selling "Intel P3 750 Socket A 100mhz" on the net. Am I wrong???

I don't think so..........I've always thought socket A was AMD. Sounds like they don't know what they got. But I could be wrong.

I never saw an intel for socketA, not even an adapter!
I'm sure they rewrote an athlon or duron offer and forgot to change socketA into socket370!!!

I'm not sure, but I think that it could be true. I got a fan for my Athlon 2400+, and it said: "For Pentium III, Duron and Athlon processors"...so I guess, that it could be true.

Socket A and Intel 370 socket could both use the same HSF. In fact, I used a 1.3 Celeron socket 370 HSF on my K6-2.

There is no Intel CPU for the socket A...maybe it's a Slot 1 CPU? Intel had the Slot 1...AMD had the Slot A
