I think it is important to point out that this (the wuarchive) is a 200
PPro overclocked. I dug up some info and found (Quote):
Its configuration is as follows:
SuperMicro P6DNF multiprocessor motherboard
The motherboard has on it:
Natoma chipset
5 PCI slots
4 ISA slots
Two CPU sockets
8 SIMM slots
2 serial ports
1 parallel port
2 IDE interfaces
One 200MHz P6 CPU ("Pentium Pro") w/512K L2 cache
1GB of main memory (8 * 128MB 60ns EDO SIMMs)
1 Adaptec AHA-3940 PCI dual-channel narrow FastSCSI controller
1 Adaptec AHA-3940UW PCI dual-channel wide UltraSCSI controller
1 Intel Pro/100B PCI 100Mbps Fast Ethernet controller
1 StorQuest ISA SVGA adapter
14 4.3GB fast-narrow SCSI drives (Quantum, Seagate)
9 9.1GB ultra-wide SCSI drives (Micropolis, Quantum)
Rack mounted color SVGA monitor
Personally, I'd love to have just one of the pieces of the remarkable
machine.
