Nobody's buying Slot 1 boards any more. 440BX is 7 years old. So if we have
to inconvenience the entusiasts with the 7 year old chipsets to support the
new stuff, so be it.

That said, the issue just went away slot_1 should be able to be merged back
together. I just received an email back from intel, and only the latest
microcode update is necessary. I'm done with everything up to and including
socket 478, so I should get to lga775 tonight.
