You have to choose whether to enter the 4-processor version, or the
1-processor version.  If you enter the 4-processor version it won't
be eligible for the current microcomputer title.

This raises an interesting question, though. Would the participants
welcome another title category for multi-processors of the Xeon type?
They look like becoming widespread machines.  The disadvantage of
too many titles is that it creates confusion and might be thought to
devalue the existing title.  I'd be interested to hear the opinions
of the participants.
