Well with the price of Intel Chips dropping every 6 months, I believe that a dual processor PC is well within consumer price range. If you get a dual processor motherboard, one can have two identical PII or PIII cpu's and take advantage of the permanent brain option. I believe that Chessbase made such option available for this type of hardware. I think that a lot of consumers are not aware of the existance of dual processor motherboards, also only Windows NT will take advantage of a dual processor motherboard, of course, Windows 2000 will also support this feature.
