Okay, here's the deal. 

My Linux box is currently a Pentium Pro 200Mhz (256 L2 cache) with 64 
megs of RAM (esentially it's an workstation that used to run NT). I 
don't want to get rid of it because it's got a lot of goodies 
including a built in NIC, SCSI, and great case cooling (yes, I know 
it's a little long in the tooth, but I was told Linux doesn't need a 
Cray to be productive). 

The motherboard is dual processor capable, but presently
only has one. However, it's also able to support *ONE* Pentium II 
running up to 333Mhz. 

My questions is esentially asking for what would yield the best speed
boost? I'm leaning toward dual PPros, but not if there are known 
SMP problems under Linux.  

I'm also intending on upgrading the RAM.

Thanks it advance.
