http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/80586/Intel-Pentium%20100%20-%20A80502-100%20(heatspreader)%20(FDIV%20bug).html

That's a 100MHz cpu with an FDIV bug in gshv's collection but the word "processor" isn't under it. If I'm not mistaken, then there are other pentium cpu's w/ gold cap that also have the FDIV bug- as long as the correct S-Spec matches.
What brings this to my attention is that I have a 100MHz ES goldcap pentium cpu, and if it has the bug in it, the value of this thing could sky rocket. I'll do some more research. If someone get's back to me tonight, I'll be able to plug it in and test it for the bug.

that is a sweet CPU for sure, and it looks like a Cyrix to the left of it?
