Pair of dual-PIII VA Linux machines, one compute server with twin dual-core opterons. Main thing that speeds up the AMD box is using 320MB scsi's for near-term storage. They are hugely faster than [S]ATA or IDE used on most equipment these days. -- Steven Lembark 85-09 90th St. Workhorse Computing Woodhaven, NY, 11421 [EMAIL PROTECTED] +1 888 359 3508 -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
