[ltp] Thinkpad 600X System Board

[linux-thinkpad@linux-thinkpad.org]

I've seen the IBM Thinkpad Pentium III 600X system board 12P3224 going cheaply as of late (around $90.00 IBM used part, boxed by IBM).

I bought one and an using a PIII 500 and it works well.

Has anyone any idea of the maximum Pentium III CPU frequency one can use with the 12P3224 system board.
