Inexpensive Intel motherboards do not support ECC memory while all current AMD cpus do. If ECC is important to you, Intel is not a good choice. I'm disappointed that there is no support for power management on the K8, which is a bit of a shock since Sun's been selling K8 based systems for a few years now. The cost of an X3 ($125) and AM2+ mobo ($80) is about the same as an Intel chip ($80) and motherboard ($150) that supports ECC. -B -- Brandon High [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The good is the enemy of the best." - Nietzsche _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
