I do not have a multiple-CPU machine, but am planning to buy one, and would like some recommendations. I'm considering a Tyan Tomcat-2 with uses Intel's Triton 2 chipset (430HX) and has PCI and ISA slots. The board has an award BIOS. Does anyone have any experience with this? If not, what is being used? Thanks! Jon Doran
