You can actually buy motherboards right now that allow you to upgrade to dual-core AMD chips when they are released. Go ahead and get your A64 stuff now (if you want to save a little money, get a 3500 Venice chip. When you need it, you can upgrade to dual core just by buying the cpu.

Roughly twice as fast as a 6800GT. rms

Most current socket 939 boards will support dual core with a bios update. I built an AMD XP 3500+ 64 bit a few months ago, and absolutely love it! I am looking foward to trying out one of the new dual core cpu's, though I may wait a bit for the price to come down a little... -- Don Burnette "When you decide something is impossible to do, try to stay out of the way of the man that's doing it."
