Perhaps.. but I don't see myself upgrading in the near future. After all,
it has handled everything I havd thrown at it until now.. and I am not
trying to do anything dramatically different or more CPU intense than
anything I have done before.

I don't think Athlon XPs are that uncommon amongst Linux users given our
fondness for keeping machines running as long as possible!

Do you know if Ubuntu optimises for SSE2 by default? Maybe I will have to
start using Gentoo or something...
