Yes, by themselves both facts are true, has has converted SOME 531 bikes, and you may in fact have a PX10, but don't think that it means you can convert it easily.
If your's has vertical dropouts, then it will make the conversion a whole bunch tougher, look for the sheldon brown article about that.
But in any case, I bought a 531 frame on ebay, a somewhat battered trek, $20 and local pickup, can't beat that. Also there's a Peugeot triathlon frame and the local shop that's a nice one, made with super vitus tubing, just about the same year as the one you have.
