I agree. I have two BP6 systems, both with dual 366s (tried to Overclock to 550 with mixed success). While I can easily get no lockups, the board has too many issues an I cannot recommend it for any mission critical or server operations. Dual celerons is great if it meets your need, but put it on a different board.
