Hi,

Please can someone point me in the right direction or give me some answers
to the following:

If I had 10 (1Gb DDRAM, 2Ghz)systems running in parallel how would that
compare to a single processor machine of the same processing speed and
memory (10Gb DDRAM and 20Ghz) - would it be the same? If not which one is
more powerful and why?

Also what would be the costs of the single processor vs the multi processor
system?
