Dunno...still say 30-50% increase isn't bad. Are you quoting data from two CPU's or two cores? I don't think there are any true four core CPU's out yet, have to wait for AMD for that one.

I have seen figures like this... 2 processors 150% = 100% + 50% 4 processors 187% = 100% + 50% + 25% + 12% 8 processors 198% = 100% + 50% + 25% + 12% + 6% + 3% + 1.5% + 0.75% etc. ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
