[PlanetCCRMA] FC3 to FC5 on PIII -733

[Norm Green]

HI Roy, I'm using a pIII 600 w/1gig ram with core 5 and a delta 66 and it
works pretty well. I can't use jamin, slows it to a grinding halt, but
everything else seems to run fine. I never played with ccrma on other
installs so I can't comment on that.
