[WBEL-users] Athlon 64 bit

[Francisco A. Lozano]

Maybe you should think twice. If you're going to move databases with sizes
below the 2Gbytes, *maybe* you'd better buy a double-Xeon, as it's a more
supported platform specially under WBEL,  and you can bet a good double-xeon
will run "like a hound dawg with its tail on fire"  ;)
