Mike you probably already know this, but many 7100s die or won't work because the heat sink grease on the PPC601 turns to powder and stops doing its job. Then, either the CPU overheats and causes random freezes/corruption, etc. Or (worse) the CPU package cracks. I have a pile of 7100s and 6100 with cracked CPU chips.
