cool

my desktop is a 3.06ghz p4 with hyper-threading
when I checked to see if I could play battle-stations Midway it gave me an effective speed of 4.5ghz
when I have the task manager up it shows 2 CPUs
I just have a 512meg vid card and 2 gigs of RAM
but then I upgraded to XP Pro saw no need to slow my machine down with Vista
