    Organise for him to work from home and I can't think of a reason he would need to come up from there.

    If I did not have the exercise of going form the attic to the basement every 1.5 hours on the weekends I would end up looking like some Jaba-The-Hut type IT guy :)

      Been there, done that (in my youth), got the tee-sirt. I get giddy in other ways now. Nothing like the whine of 120mm fans and HDs spinning up...

        I am keeping an open mind and hoping that my input on the products that I specialize in will help out too. Nick Jensen the CEO seems to be very customer and market focused as where Intel was only product focused.

          That's just wrong. I've moved to Porters and Stouts and botique beers. There's no letting it go. Plus your like what, 2 yerars older then me anyway.

          Or a quality beer to have with it. These new machines run pretty bloody hot. Need something to cool you down.

            On the contrary, anyone who uses a P4 for development most definitely needs a new machine. Ugh. ;P

                Yeah, this add[^] gives no real details. I emailed them about it but have not heard back yet. I am thinking that it is probably not an Intel board for that price but I am not viewing that as a bad thing since I have worked with them before in my lab at work and found them to be a bit, shall we say, temperMENTAL.

                    No guarentees now... I am just matching features. There is probably a Tyan and Intel similar. If it said Intel graphics I would assume it was an Intel board. There are also some OEM boards from Asus and MSI that are not available for individual sales. I'll be interested in what you find out. We chose all our components... but it cost a lot more... a LOT more. http://www.zianet.com/jjustinb/MonarchComputerSCSIDualDual.pdf[^]

                      Some? If you have more then that should be the first priority. The interest on CC debt is enough to kill anyone.
