Only that it probably will work like a charm! I've had my dual Celeron FreeBSD SMP box for 1.5 years now. I'm using the BP6 motherboard and the only changes during the time has been CPU upgrades. Stability is great, performance is great, the sun is shining,... Today I probably would buy a super high MHz single CPU machine to get that single program performane (Unreal Tournament, Emacs and other apps), but as a small home server this machine has been and is great. -- Med vänlig hälsning, Yours Joachim Strömbergson - Alltid i harmonisk svängning ---------------- Ericsson Microwave Systems AB ----------------- Joachim Strömbergson http://www.ericsson.se/microwave ASIC System on Silicon engineer, nice to CUTE animals. * Opinions above, expressed or implicit, are strictly personal * ------------- Spamfodder: regeringen@regeringen.se ------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-smp" in the body of the message
