I disagree. The SSDF list is primarily designed to give users an idea as to the
strength of the chess machines out there, as well as the programs and how well
they do on *typical* hardware. I don't think a Dual Opteron falls under that
description. In fact, I don't know anyone, aside from a a few CCC members and
probably comp-sci students, who have duals. I have no doubt that this will
change, but right now, I see no point. If they were to consider upgrading, I'd
go for an AMD Athlon 3200 XP+ for example, or something along those lines.
