   ftp.cdrom.com and www.cdrom.com are rack mounted, but that has nothing
to do with them being "REAL" servers or not.
   If your definition of a "REAL" server is one that doesn't contain an
Intel CPU, then that's fine, but is nothing more than your opinion and
has little to do with the reality of the world.

>Which in case you where out of the loop, most REAL servers use RISC.

   No, they don't. Most servers in the world - be them corporate-internal or
Internet, are PCs running, unfortunately, Windows/NT.
