I hadda put this out here...I'm just too much of a hardware freak not to... SGI announced a Quad Xeon 500 Mhz box... I'm currently in the process of breaking Commandments, like covetousness, and I'm sure one or two others... *Wow*, Lets see...Quad Xeon 500s, with 1M L2 cache, 512 M of ECC SDRAM, Like 16 GIGs, and Linux. *Wow* An Hitachi 21" 802 Elite Plus, Rf Keyboard, and Mouse, A Diamond Fire GL 1000 /32M video card, and a Turtle Beach Montego Quadzilla...maybe an ADSL connection just to complete the abuse... Hey, Some guys get off with cars or lawn tractors, I'm a system freak...Imagine ther graphic rendering abilities..I could do a fractaloverlay on a 24 meg graphic in like 5 seconds, recompile a kernel in like 2 minutes..... Oh, Well, I'll be able to afford a Now all I need is to hear DEC/compaq is throwing out their nextgen Alpha...heh heh heh.. Sorry Folks, a moment of weakness..
