There is NO advantage what-so-ever unless you're going to install Windows 64-bit edition when it arrives early next year... My suggestion, wait till mid next year and grab a 4Ghz dual-core 64-bit P4 with HT and Windows 64-bit.. If you spec the machine enough, it will also be Longhorn-ready.

Peteroy is back??? :shocked:
 
LOL, now that was good..


Anyhow, LongHorn is projected for 2006 but knowing Microsoft it'll probably be Q4 or 07'. By then dual-cores and DDR2, BTX, and PCI-E will be amazing and the prices will be outrageous so it's better to get the best value now rather than going cheap.
