Jeez Uda. What a load of crap. Please stay away from the cheap wine before posting. Besides, it was a coalition of US and British Commonwealth forces that defended Australia in WWII from the Japanese Imperial forces. Britain was already tied up in India and Burma fighting the Japanese when...

Hmmm... Seems as if I handled some of these 45 nanny quaddy Xeons also, but that was way back in December 2007... and it was a dual-socket server package... and its name rhymed with Hell.

Mmmmmmmmmmm! SPAM!!! I love the smell of SPAM in the morning. Well, not as much as the smell of napalm in the morning. But, otherwise, thanks for the free SPAM, Patricia!

I give no damn about gaming (as opposed to giving a damn). But, someone I know sent me a link to this, and I thought it to be both ridiculous and hilarious. :rotfl: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260177215240

I've been seeing 3 SmartCars around the neighbourhood this year (a black one and 2 different blue ones -- one with Canadian plates). Saw someone driving an Isetta on occasion around here about 7 or 8 years ago. :eek:

Thanks for correcting me on that. It certainly makes sense for such ExpressCard add-in devices (like FaxModems, etc) to use the internal USB2 port instead of a screaming fast PCIe port (lane). By the way, it looks like I meant 2.5 Gb/s not 250 Gb/s up there. (sheesh!). :compress:

I could do a Spock joke here, but... I don't know your precise needs, expectations, or situation there at the "factory." But, from what I gathered by skimming through the talk in this thread (the last time I was here) is that it looks like a SAN -- or possibly NAS -- should have been planned...
