As for the PII you are correct in that some This makes sense; however, do you know of any of the newer (Super7) motherboards that support 2 or more sockets AND support 100 MHz bus speed (for faster RAM, etc)? Also, which would be better: dual PII-450 or quad PP200 ? I am under the impression that an SMP board does not give 100% additional CPU throughput for each additional CPU but rather an additional 20 or 30% extra. -Rod > systems support 2 processors but only 2 and not more.
