I've got a really sweet supermicro based dual HT Xeon powerhouse on ebay. only 3 days left! I am in serious need of funds for my wedding. I put this machine up as a desperate last effort. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330164361807 It is doing a great job on Seti under windows, I can only imagine what it would do under Linux!! buy my box!!! it runs 4 instances of seti at once!! texaspowerwashing.com |

I've got a really sweet supermicro based dual HT Xeon powerhouse on ebay. only 3 days left! hm... with a whole RAC of 13 and bunch of client errors! Perhaps not the best time to mention it here! With Q6600s going for a song, I think you'll have a hard time getting a good price for it :( but I hope you can raise enough for the wedding... Good luck, poor thing! Andy. |

With Q6600s going for a song, I think you'll have a hard time getting a good price for it :( but I hope you can raise enough for the wedding... Good luck, poor thing! I wouldn't call two instances of app_version download error: couldn't get input files: <file_xfer_error> <file_name>setiathome_5.27_windows_intelx86.exe</file_name> <error_code>-163</error_code> <error_message>too much elapsed time</error_message> </file_xfer_error> "a bunch of" client errors - and anyway, those are Berkeley server (download fanout) problems, nothing to do with the quality of the computer being offered. Two 3.2 GHz Xeons should still be a respectable cruncher - don't let Andy's comments put you off. Best of luck with your wedding, Anthony. |
