Greetings! My computer shop says they can put two Intel 550MHz Pentium III or Pentium II 400MHz processors on a tyna BX Motherboard for a dual-processor system. They say this would effectively double the speed through task sharing, which is handled automatically by the Motherboard -- no special software required. So presumably that would give me a 800-1100 MHz system (effectively), and chess playing software such as Chessmaster, Hiarcs, Shredder, etc. would run twice as fast. Are there any benchmarks or other published info available for dual processor systems with chess playing software? Is anybody using or testing such a system? I would welcome any feedback... Thanks! JRM
