Doesn't apply :( I guess your mailer converted the tabs to spaces or
something equally silly. Can you please resubmit (maybe as an
attachement if you can't educate Thunderbird)?

As far as I know the Pentium Pro was the first one to have VID pins.
I'm pretty certain the regular Pentium (socket 7) and previous CPUs did
not have VID pins, so it comes to no surprise that the SC1100 doesn't
have any.
