Hi -
I just got a board with an AMD Athlon 64 X2 cpu. I was wondering -
1) Is the amd64 8.0 release the fbsd of choice here?
and
2) Does it take advantage of the athlon's dual cores?
Thanks,
IHN,
Gene

Yes. 8.0R is the way to go. However, you might want to bring it upto
date after installing it as there are a number of bug fixes
