        Oh man, I better start saving now.

        Full AMD chipset, full 2x 4dimm slots for a full 16 G address space and all the dual channel goodness..
        4x SATA RAID channels.

        I guess I better find a source for PCI-x cards, but I guess the single normal PCI slot should do the job, since it has plenty of goodness bundled on board

          Yeah, but those 2GB modules are bloody expensive!

          You'd probably end up woth 8GB from 1GB modules instead. Though that's plenty for most purposes!

                  Seems like a nice board for some serious overkill computer

                        Set you back at around £500 (inc VAT) here.

                        Hmmm, I wonder if those new Matrox cards will work with this and how many at the same time.

                            No. My fund from earning a 1st in my Internet Computing degree from my brother (Because I'm the dum one of the children, and getting that 1st was something of an accomplishment ).

                            As for the Queen. Hmmm, can't remember whether the OSA allows me to say anything more...

                            The other funds are from Feng Shui. Fortune Telling and Feng Shui are charged sperately.
