[G4] Dual CPUs

[Snow White]

But, consider the original 350 and 400 SawTooth G4s.  Many were single 
processor and cannot use a Dual CPU at all.  If you want dual later, 
buy dual when you purchase.  Better to just be done with it outright 
than search for 3 years for what you wanted originally as a retro-fit.
