I have recently build 2 machines, one with an Intel Pentium Dual Core
CPU, and one SATA HDD, and the other with a single AMD 64 bit CPU, and
a RAID 1 w 2 SATA HDD. Both costed the same even though the AMD had 2
HDDs. Here are the show translations from both:

This shows that the AMD 64 bit is worth much more than just the price
difference.

Due to the recent nightmares I've had with the Asus K8N and the Dell
PowerEdge 830, recommendations here would be greatly appreciated.  What
board, what interfaces (digium/sangoma) and results as well as caveats.
