Subject: Dual Pentiums/Neptune chipset?

Hi all,
I know that there has been a lot of talk/controversy/speculation about
which platform to use for Lightwave. It seems that the Pentium running
the Triton chipset and certain other hardware/software gives good
performance (for most people anyway). We're looking at purchasing a new system
to use at
work and have been allocated funds to do so (within reason; we've got
about 5k to play with).
We would like to run a dual Pentium 133 MHz system with the NT OS.
After searching around, we've been told that there is NOT a dual Pentium with
the Triton chipset. We've been told that there IS a dual Neptune set
available. Is this true? If it is, has anyone out there got a dual
Pentium with the Neptune chipset? If so, how does it perform?
I know, Lightwave is not multi threaded yet, but there is other
software out there that is. Hopefully, one day LW will be too! Any
feedback would be greatly appreciated, as we are pushing a deadline here.
Thanks,
Mike Crumpler
