Please remember the words of Dr. Cray:
"Speed is not the main thing. It's the ONLY thing."
If you buy a dual processor machine, you have dual cores, but on
separate chips. If you can get, and take advantage of dual cores in a
two processor machine (by take advantage of, I mean the OS will actually
recognize all processors, something Microsoft only allows in their MOST
expensive server OSes), then DO IT! I would! I am looking at buying a
four socket Motherboard for the AMD dual core Opteron. That would be 8
processors. YES!!!!!

I know this comment really isn't on topic but is sort of is.....I
bought my dual 2 gig G5 about a week before they released the dual
core G5's. I was told at the time of purchase that I had 14 days in
which to return it. When I heard about the release of the new G5, I
was almost ready to pack it up and say "give me the new one", but,
I've been so impressed with the speed of this one that for what I use
it for, web browsing, email, games. I figured the dual core would
just be over-kill or am I wrong?
