the second graph on this page: http://www.anandtech.com/cpu/showdoc.html?i=1818&p=5 (general usage performance; business winstone 2002) and the 3rd graph on this page: http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/cpu/display/opteron-1_19.html Performance: Office and Content Creation Applications business winstone 2002 i have noted these bench marks correlate very well with chess benchmarks;based on these the opteron does not seem much better than an athlon xp; infact one of aaron's 2400 babies might thrash the opteron pretty badly; in all other tests the opteron is to put it mildly "pathetic" i doubt that anyone will ever want to buy such a system esp when intel has come out with this:http://www.gamepc.com/labs/view_content.asp?id=xeon3061MB&page=1
