Hi S.I,

I should've mentioned before that we are trying to save some money 
here, therefore the idea is to add a second 2.4GHz Intel Xeon CPU to 
our current box.

However, if there is consensus that a second processor will buy us 
nothing, we'll need to acquire a new system and will consider your 
suggestion.

Thanks,
