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...
