I've been reading over all the "101" stickies across the various sections, and need a bit of help:
1) Can someone explain to me what exactly the FSB and BSB are? I'm getting the feeling that its collectively all the copper traces on the motherboard that lead from the socket to other high-level devices such as the ram and etc, based on this definition I found in MoBo 101...
Either that, or the socket itself, since its claiming to be an interconnect. But, that doesnt seem right at all.
When someone is talking about the BUS, they mean all the copper traces on the motherboard; Any of them count as part of the BUS. Correct?

The FSB or front-side bus is the interconnect that the CPU uses to connect to other "high-level" devices
