Now I'm curious just how good an XP1800+ is compared to an X2-3800 .... by some rough calcs, the X2 can crunch a WU on each core at twice-thrice the speed that the 1800 can (running linux).
And on that, the primary X2 core crunches at about 30% faster than the secondary core. Anyone else notice that?

I'll know more when the 1800 actually finishes it's first WU
