According to my last post Web Server, 1 or 2 Quad Core Xeon?
, I just did the order for Single Quad Core Xeon today. With the saving of paying extra for 2nd Xeon, I can get a NAS or Mac Mini, I really think that this web server will not need 8 COREs. 
Anyway, the server should reach See See next week and she will get the CentOS 5.1 on while I will wait for the connection to further configure.
Now is the time to hunt for cPanel

Still deciding on what specs to go for the web server since pricing coming down a lot. Should I choose the single Intel Xeon Quad Core 5420 or 2 of the same processors? It seems that I cannot find any information in any search engine.
I have been thinking of I may not need to go for 2 x Quad Core, there are few reasons
- High CPU Loading seems like not really happened due to the site we served on this server mostly will be private
- Even I have super power 2 x Quad Core but can the 100mbps LAN able to be fully utilized?
- With the money saving for the 2nd processor, I may able to get a Mac Mini as for backup
If anyone got some good suggetion then please let me know.
The other specs for this Dell PowerEdge 1950 will be
- 4GB (2 x 2GB) memory
- 2 x 300GB SAS 15K rpm HDD
- Dual Gigabit Ethernet
- Redundant Power Supply
Cheers
