2) I just got my new research workstation approved--a dual 1.3 Athlon 
system with 1G of DDR, 3 15k scsi drives, 4 40G ide drives, and a 21" 
sony monitor.  For a mere $4800 :)  [You have leave to drool :) ]

the 760MP when it comes out.  Which leads to,

3) Multiprocessor support in FreeBSD.  This is K7, not P6, and I know
