Slot2 refers to the physical and electrical specification for the 330-lead edge-connector used by some of Intel's microprocessors, including the Pentium II and Pentium III.
Slot2 is intended for use in high end multi-processor workstations and servers.

Intel's Slot 2 is big | CNET News.com(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The "Slot2" processor package that will be used to house upcoming Pentium II processors will be approximately twice the size of the "Slot 1" package which Intel currently uses to house the Pentium II.
Slot2 refers to the packaging and the interface that will be part and parcel of Pentium II chips for workstations and servers.
The Slot 1 package, which was introduced with the Pentium II, is the sleek, fl casing that is synonymous with the look and feel of the Pentium II; It's the one that is featured in most of Intel's current TV ads.
Intel planning for Slot 2(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Just after releasing its Slot 1 architecture now being used with Pentium II chips, Intel is releasing details about its upcoming Slot2 which will work with an upcoming version of the Pentium II chip.
Slot2 will be used mainly with server-level machines, utilizing Intel's 450NX chipset.
Slot2 will be available in early '98, but it is unclear if the version of the Pentium II that supports it will also be available at that time.

ISA slots can only handle 32 bits of data at a time.
A 32-bit ISA slot has 32 connections to the motherboard and can handle only 32 bits of data at a time.
The later EISA, (or Extended ISA), slots are capable of 32-bit data transfer.
The Pentium II 350 and 400 released this week employ the Slot 1 design, which limits the number of processors to two, and limits the speed of the L2 cache to half that of the processor.
Because the Slot2 will support up to 2 MB of L2 cache (current systems are limited to 512KB), the cartridge is almost twice the size of the Slot 1, necessitating some serious case and motherboard design changes.
The first Slot2 processors--which are expected to be 350 and 400 MHz versions--are due later this year.
MAGMA's 2Slot CardBus-to-PCI Expansion System is just what you need to make this idea a reality.
The 2slot expansion system is available in several different configurations.
One of the most popluar solutions is Model CB2 which accommodates 2 full-length PCI cards and has a drive bay specially designed so you can add two internal IDE/ATA or SCSI disk drives to the 2slot enclosure.
