Until microsoft and practically everyone else that writes software, writes some code that takes advantage of the P4 cpu the extra cost just isn't worth it in my opinion. You won't get very much of a performance increase over a P3(and in some instances a worse performance). It's going to take quite awhile for these companies (including the audio industry) to re-write their applications to take full advantage of the P4, and by then we'll be paying a whole lot less for a P4 cpu.
