no need to wait at all. dual core dual opteorn 265 you can get from the shops
within 2 working days right now. i had checked a week ago for GM Smeets who
wants to buy his dual core dual opteron. Month or 2 before that GM Sutovsky
needed a computer and he has build a dual opteron at my advice, and can cheaply
upgrade it within not too long to dual core for a cheap price.

more gm's consider buying such a system now. they've become more clever and tend
to ask computerchess guys. It appeared Sutovksy also asked stefan mk and had the
exact same answer from him like i had given :)
