A desktop with 4 GB is a fun toy, but bigger than *I* need, even for development purposes. But I don't think EMC, Clariion (low end EMC), Shark, etc. have any IDE products for my 8-proc 16 GB machine...

Probably a bad example to extrapolate large system numbers from. gerrit - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
