    I've built a system with about 150k lines of code and 900 unit tests on a P3-1GHz with no problems. Put your dicks away.

    No biztalk - just SQL 2000, VS2003, NUnit, CruiseControl.Net and SVN...

      I dumped the AMD and went Conroe....it is significantly faster for browsing text only web sites.

          Yeah that's also fifty quid which increases your profit margin nicely compared to a £1.5k workstation.

            "Real" consultants spend more on their socks than you did on that PC.
