    I’ve got a PM from Komplett today where they told me they have sent my Intel today and I think it will arrive tomorrow or on Tuesday.

    I have ponder use this computer for my private need using Internet and Word or Excel or sometime Windows player when watching video clips for example. I use to do this on my AMD Athlon 3200+ and I can’t se any increase of the performance. Perhaps it is there but it is difficult to see.

    Instead my AMD 3200+ will be a computer as I not need to use for my private need. I only need Internet and say WordPad because I will remove Office from this computer + some other software. I have also MS Works as I can use for writing. Then this computer may run along in the silent.

    I don’t know if Intel Core2 Duo will slow down if I use it as I use my AMD. I think there is so mush power and performance so if I use it for my private need the performance should only be marginal poorly.

    I have my E-post dresses on my AMD. How can I save it and move it over to my new Intel? And if I will save all posts I have got is it possible move it over and if how can I do that? I have XP on both but no network. They are connected to a router and modem only.

    I have a 512 MB USB memory whish is good for backups of all files + project files.

    Any advice is most welcome

    Talking about 2 cores:

    I think one core use 100 %
    And the second 100% but I suspect this is wrong or isn’t?

    Say I run 2 Boinc task on the core2 Duo.
    Will it mean they use 50 % each to crunch both WU´s?

    Within task manager when running BOINC with 2 tasks both will run at 50 but the CPU usage will be at 100%.
