You can count on it!  It will vary by vendor, of course.  In some cases the
upgraded machine will be in the same "tier" and in others it won't.  In
terms of technical issues, the answer is again "it depends".  Some software
checks only the HPSUSAN, which normally doesn't change when you add a
processor, but others check both the HPSUSAN and the HPCPUNAME, which will
change with a processor upgrade (if it's kosher).  So you will have to spend
more money on some products, and some will require new installation codes to
be applied as soon as you upgrade.  You'll need to contact all of your
software suppliers before the upgrade to determine which ones.
