Yeah, me too.
There were no extra arms included on the options so extra CPU's wouldn't do me that good.
It would be much like most OS's where you can have multiple cores but the first one is always the one in use most of the time.

A better OS is always what it takes for the machine to operate on high levels of performance under abusive usage (lots of cafeeine, 2 hours of sleep per night/day Smile | :) )
O good OS would be one that would take care os the parts good enough so they would fall apart (depression, sleepness, ...)

Cheers!
Alex
