Jon,
You mentioned the Dells before, so when my shop box decided
to take a crap, I hit the local computer warehouse here in the DC
Metro area. They didn't have any Optiplex's, but I did manage to get
a Dell Dimension 8400 (? - looking at the invoice - I'll check the
model # when I get a chance to get out the the shop) with a P4 3.GHz
CPU, 1 GB RAM, 40 GB HD and CD-RW. Jitter on this machine was in the
6000's with the hyper-threading turned off.
