Zeuspaul,

Thanks, this is very useful advice and some good links. Letting someone else burn-in a starting configuration and building up from there is attractive to me. I too, have thought of going with one processor to start. And multi-threading aside, it is still the OS that determines how efficient (or existent!) multi-proccessing is.

I've seen figures that say adding a second processor results in only a 60-70% increase in computing power. But that still adds enough additional independent data-crunching ability to suit me.

About how long should one expect to wait before the BTX motherboard bugs are addressed?

Regards,
Michael
