Jim,

No gotchas, per se.  You've got the 3rd party stuff handled.  Two things to
keep in mind:

   1.  Two processors doesn't mean twice the processing power.  Going from
a 979-100 to a -200 will mean about 70 percent additional performance.

   2.  Two processors doesn't mean that batch processing will automatically
take half the time.  You'll need to introduce greater parallelism into your
processing manually (or with your batch scheduler) to take fullest
advantage of the additional processor.

HTH,
