The problem is it is not much faster than my dual 2.8.  My quad 700 was
about 1/2 the speed of my dual 2.8 running Crafty.  I've run on an 8450
in the past, and at the same clock speed, it was about 1.5X faster than
my equivalent quad.  Which means this would be about 1.5X faster than a quad
900, which is real close to a dual 2.8...

It is _not_ the best chess box around...
