Never get tired of Europeans complaining English is hard to learn...
For 2500 years, the favorite pasttime of European countries was to go conquer the British Ilses. Each time, you made certain to interject pieces of your vocabulary, grammar, and culture.
Finally, it was Spain's turn, but things didn't go as planned. England decided to play a little get back. It sailed all over the world imposing English to the native. Unlike Spain, which merely raped the natural resources, England bothered to settle actually English people and wipe out the natives when possible. As such, the English colonies were further along the advancement tree. Over time, English became the default international language.
And thus, all you Europeans get to learn the odd mismatch of broken spelling, grammar, and phonics you left us with.
Dual core processors are good stuff, and you will be glad you bought it soon enough. However, everyone with one or plannign to buy one should br told in advance that they often have trouble running older programs, not just EQ. In addition, many can solve these problems by "setting the affinity" to a single core. I understand this to mean that the machine uses a single core to run the program, but I am unfamiliar and this could be wrong. However, this is not a 100% everytime fix for all people. I know of at least one person where I work who had so much trouble that he rebuilt a machine using the previous motherboard and processor just to run his older games.
Thus far, the following problems I have heard attributed to dual core: Odd graphics, bad sound, running too fast, running too slow, and various windows message crash errors, usually involving memory allocation, fatal exceptions, or file corruption errors.
