I'll be ordering one this week. There is but _1_ dual system to get -- Tyan Thunder K7 (code name Guinness). http://www.tyan.com/products/html/thunderk7.html. It comes in multiple flavors, but mine is the dual-channel Ultra160, dual-3com 10/100, 5-64bit PCI, 1 AGP version. You can cheap out and not get the non-SCSI S2462NG model. Match this bad-boy up with a pair of fast Athlon `MP' (not `XP') CPU's and it is a totally solid system. Various FreeBSD committers also have this system. There is a newer [more economic] version called the Thunder K7X. http://www.tyan.com/products/html/thunderk7x.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
