IIRC, to go dual Intel requires Xeon CPU's.

Can someone explain the benefits of a dual-processor? What would take advantage of
dualies?
What applications would run faster (Photoshop etc.).

Depends on the OS. With Win 2K MS has multithreading balanced across
browsers. I have a dual 1.2 gig Dell server that I use to game and
everything. I can track both processors getting equal load across almost
all applications, games
Thanks for the info.
Whats about games! :-D

Sure the ATI is probably decent...as long as you never upgrade your
OS. ATI still doesn't even have decent Windows 2000 drivers for it's
previous cards. No Linux drivers either. I've been burned by ATI too
many times (twice...) with bad drivers. Never again
