I got my hands on a mPGA m/board, but i was wondering... Is there a hardware difference between mPGA and PPGA, i.e will a PPGA processor work in a mPGA m/board? I know theres already a post regarding the difference between the two, but i wanted to make sure i dont go out of my way to get a processor and realise it wont work! :S Thanks
