I have partly a question and partly a survey. I just got a P4 2.4ghz (c) proc, mb w/ 512M DDR400 dropped in my lap at work so I could upgrade my workstation in the office. It does have hyperthreading. I've never user HT hardware and I've heard conflicting reports about it. I have it turned off right now and I haven't installed the SMP kernel since I'm not sure I'm going to bother. I guess my question is...for a workstation doing webbrowsing, documents in OO, Gaim, playing mp3's and s**tloads of xterms. Does HT give or take away from the enviroment as far as speed and all that. All opinions are welcome. :) -- Ben Rosenberg ---===---===---===--- mailto:ben@whack.org ----- If two men agree on everything, you can be sure that only one of them is doing the thinking.
