Of course from my point of view. Should I borrow somebody else's? 😀

True enough, though, in the server/high end workstation market 4-600 dollars is a steal. grumble.

Heh, I know the feeling. I put my duallie together last week, and I've been thoroughly impressed. I wasn't happy with having to purchase a proprietary power supply for the S2462, but I figure I can sell it soon enough so as not to lose a lot of value. I don't plan on keeping this setup longer than 2-3 months, if that, whenever a &quot;consumer&quot; dual-AMD board appears that uses the regular ATX 2.03 connectors. Believe me, the performance of 2 1.2GHz AthlonMP's is phenomenal. Faster than running dual 1.4 regular Thunderbirds, due to the Palomino core being SMP-optimized, the hardware prefetching, etc. You can run the dual 1.4 Thunderbird's on this board, but I'd highly recommend using AthlonMPs. The 1.0GHz parts are <$190 now.
