Are you multi-cored?
-
No multicore for me :^). I do have a K6-2 with 3DNow! that's pretty spiffy.
Finally, I have a normal person, the other are making me feel poor ;P Best regards, Paul.

"Multi-Core Is Mainstream: Are you ready?"
Both at home and at work, I am still on Pentium 4, and do not have any plans (especially for my home PC) to upgrade yet. At home, I have Dell Precision with Pentium 4, 2.4 GHz, at work it is self-built (with Dell monitor) with Pentium 4, 2.8 GHz. How about you? are you multi-cored to the teeth? Best regards, Paul.

No, but compiles go pretty fast
Yeah, when compiling my documents with Sandcastle, I just wish it is faster. Sometimes at home, I go to take a rest in the sofa (while waiting for the Sandcastle output), and never come back till the next day (already tired from the day's work) :(( Well, I also wish there is wiifee to wake me up :laugh: Best regards, Paul.

Your processor isn't magically going to upgrade itself like when your car ran on fumes for miles and miles? ;P

P4 2.4 GHZ, not even hyperthreading. Waiting for the Quad-Cores to be a bit cheaper. When I get a new box, I like it to be at least twice as fast as the old one. Before this one, it was PIII-450...now there was a quantum leap :)

You brought some hope, I will wait for the 8-cores then :-D I love the AMD deal of 3-core, give something cheaper to the clients. Best regards, Paul.

Both my laptop and desktop are multicore. Laptop is a Core2 duo, pretty new, and my desktop is an aging dual-core AMD. I forget the actual specs, but it's a socket AM2. It's not bad, but it's no Core2 duo, in my opinion. For the first time ever, my laptop compiles stuff faster than my desktop :)

I still cannot imagine doing development on laptop. I was given one when I first joined my current company, and I had it changed that very day. I hate the keyboard and the small screen. Best regards, Paul.

Multicore all way. I've recently upgraded my home PC to core2duo e6300 (gentoo compiles waaay faster) and talked my boss to buy me a multicore pc. However he was choosing and I got pentium D :/ It's better than a hyperthreaded p4 though..

Just upgraded my laptop a couple months ago to one with the core2duo thing. It's good. Fits well with how i work - multiple projects open at once, switching from one to another during builds, etc. No slowdowns this way.

at home a pentium 4 3.0ghz hyperthreading, but needs to be replaced very soon since it has had problems with heating since the day I bought it (I can't even close the box up without having my screen going black :sigh: (it's my graphical card that is overheating but just don't have the room in the box to put in additional cooling)) anyway, I'm waiting for the quad-core to become a bit cheaper. my old laptop (about 6 years old) was just pentium 4 my new laptop (about 2 years old) don't really know since my brother stole it (but wasn't multi-core that much I do know) at work I have a pentium 4 3.0ghz hyperthreading and that's more than enough at the moment since we do all our work on the servers so...
If my help was helpfull let me know, if not let me know why. The only way we learn is by making mistaks.

Mine laptop has a 17" widescreen, so it's not that bad, but I completely agree about the keyboard. Doing development on it, which I sometimes need to do, is pretty frustrating do to the smaller keys, less tactile feedback, and horrible key layout. But then again, it's better than not being able to work at all when I'm on-the-go. But I still sigh a little sigh of frustration when I open it up to do development work. Just not as big a sigh as I used to give when I had my old 1Ghz 15" laptop :)

I've got a dual-cpu machine at home, but it's only running WinXP Home, so it's half wasted (Before anyone asks, the machine was being given away at work, and was marginally more powerful than my old machine, I don't have the spare cash to get XP Pro, and it's not powerful enough for Vista.)

Wow, please let me know if your company is given away more dual-cpu machine! What then do you use at work currently? Quad? dual-quad? Core2 Quad!!! Best regards, Paul.

Given the massive popularity of Vista there must be at least 4 people trying to sell their old XP disks. If you can find one of them maybe you could cut a deal.

yup, my fillings are multi-cored! i have cores so many places, the worms don't know which way to go! I've got so many cores, I can crash Windows and Linux simultaneously! I've got so many cores time runs backwards in the vacinity of my office! I have so many cores, I am the largest contributer to global warming! I've got so many cores, Intel calls ME to release their chips! I have so many cores Palo Verde Nuclear plant now serves me power directly! oops sorry, got carried away there.... yeah, I have a ... few cores. ;)

3 of our 5 machines are dual core. The sixth (a 17" widescreen laptop for demo purposes) is being ordered tonight. :)
