Subject: question about using computer with 2 processors

I plan to buy a cheap computer with 2 processors dual PIII1000 Mhz for testing.
I will probably also buy more expensive computer for WCCC with one processor
when I may use the cheap computer for testing with ponder on.


I still did not buy it and before buying it I have a question.

The question is if I can tell the program which processor to use or tell the
program to choose automatically one of them when I have no control about it.

Another question is if I can be sure that the processors are of equal speed(if
they are not of equal speed then the question which processor the program is
using may be important.

Can I be sure that one 1 Ghz is not 1.01ghz when the second 1ghz is 0.99 ghz?
