20-25 definetely maxes it out,  and I actually only have 1 3.06 hyperthreading cpu.  If I change just the memory, Les says I most likely won't see a big increase.  From what little I know, he is probably right.  Memory is easy to change, cpu will require new motherboard.

If I change motherboard, 1 of the nics used for ltsp will change,(1 of the ones now is an onboard nic) If I change motherboard and cpu, then put in my controllers and hard drives, will Fedora Core and ltsp find the hardware changes and reconfigure things.  Seems to me like the 2 nics and the nating they do might become confused.  How would I fix that?  or is LTSP smart enough to reconfigure itself to utilize the two new nics it discovers on boot-up?
