i am looking at building a dual processor board and i currently have a 1.3 Ghz FC-PGA2 celeron. Does anyone know if there is such a thing as a motherboard out there that supports these processors in dual mode? i have searched the net to no avail.... If not, does anyone have any suggestions?

Only the P3 Tualatins can be used in pairs. You would need to buy two dual-processor P3 1.13s and a board for them. This will be very expensive.
