The S900 is capable of having 2 CPUs internally, but it is of very limited use. MacOS 9 will report that you have 2 processors but it won't use the 2nd CPU at all. Certain applications will use it (Photoshop and Quicktime are the only 2 that come to mind). MacOS prior to X is really too brain-dead to use multiple CPUs. You're much better off with a faster single CPU. There are many G3 and G4 CPU upgrades available for the S900, from G3 300 mhz up to G4 800 mhz!
