   @vga256 @Gammitin I've got a couple like this! There was a brief period where it made some sense: slot-1 and socket 370 are electrically equivalent, you just need a few capacitors to convert between them (there are slotket adapters to let you use socket 370 chips in slot 1 boards).
   So some board manufacturers just put both connectors on the board, to make it more convenient. You just use whichever you need
