Hi..
Just tested, so far it seems good. System CPU load is floored (near 0), 
system is very responsive, no mouse sluggishness or random 
mouse/keyboard input.
Doing a make -j 20 buildworld now (on my 1ghz p3 thinkpad ;), and 
running some SQLServer stuff in VMWare. We'll see how it fares.

Thanks,
/Eirik
