Gem - those things are all well and nice, but I've seen a few applications enjoy only a modest increase on the new machine due to their not being optimized for multi-cpu setups.

I'm happy to say that WitP flies on new hardware.  2x as fast.

I have a nice new computer with a 3.0GHz dual core CPU and XP - I can now lose CVs at least 5 times faster than before. [:D]

Alright, good to hear. But, not to toot my own horn, but I'm a computer hardware/overclocking junkie and believe me, your new PC to your old PC is like riding a bicycle to work and now driving a car to work, HUGE difference in performance my friend.
It doesn't make any sense, Admiral. Were we better than the Japanese or just luckier?

Don't get Vista, that's almost like saying "play in traffic"
