The biggest problem we are faced with is the fact that when the chip changes often does the mother board and ram. So, the cost of upgrading becomes 3-fold. Tom Nadeau Speed matters most to me.
Price is secondary.
I've finally learned my lesson re. I'm waiting for RAM prices to fall back to reasonable prices. David Cole newest, fastest, biggest, and best. Colin Matlack look forward to the day when price gouging will be a thing of past. I wish they'd compare them to other 64-bit chips like the Alpha.
