<4> Dell VaporWare Opteron
<1> but, according to sources it will :P
<3> fredk: If Intel can persuade Dell, with the $$, it'll not happen.
<3> fredk: Especially if Intel can get even *close* with another chip.

<5> I missed something
<3> schitzo: <aol>

<3> Revenger: erm, we do.
<5> whyzzyrd: aol?
<3> fredk: only on optimised work loads.
<3> schitzo: Me Too!
<3> fredk: It's true, a wad of cache helps many ills, right enough.
<4> hmm. is falchion cooled down yet ?
<6> whyzzyrd: only the first one. an AOL in response to an AOL is "me three! "
<3> fredk: Our 8M cache Xeons actually go pretty damned well, thankyou very much.
<2> Revenger: Wanna try?
<4> why not.
<7> odd. hasnt it been longer than 3 hours?
<3> fredk: I can see that cache will only help *so* much, but with a lot of it, in the right places..
<1> whyzzyrd, you have too much money ;)
<1> well, your company does
<3> fredk: no, we got these mofo's *cheap*.
<1> whyzzyrd, old xeons then? :P
<3> fredk: We bought 4 4-way 3G 8M cache xeons 3 months before the first dual-core jobs.

<3> D-side: it appears not
<7> i mean, my GOD.
<3> D-side: indeed. How does someone so clueless get admin access to a box?

<3> Mister_a: English, wit****.
<5> or you could just leave.
<7> macht schnell, as they say.
<7> i think they say that anyway. i haven't a clue what goes on with them.
<3> arbeit macht frei
<7> i'm pretty sure that doesn't go on with them anymore.
<3> D-side: me too.

<7> Revenger: yeah. sorry about that.
<2> Gods, I need a project
<7> PolarWolf: i was JUST thinking that.
<7> nothing i've got going on now i dare break.
<1> PolarWolf, translate the bible into klingon will you please?
<7> everything's dialed in just-so, and i dont want to destroy all of it.
<3> Revenger: hmm, apologies. Oughtn't have churned out the silly comment..
<2> fredk: Hah

<10> Evening... long time no see...
<4> MattJ.
<10> Hey Revie.
<3> D-side: I'd attack it with a dremel..
<11> whyzzyrd: I managed to connect an existing analogue socket in the server room to the patch panel which meant all I had to do was plug the modem in at the corresponding office floor socket. I found an old analogue telephone and used its cable as a convenient BT to rj11 adaptor ;)
<12> almost quittin' time
<11> whyzzyrd: Yay to Heath Robinson solutions.
<3> Tron: good-un
<11> whyzzyrd: Saves all that messing about if I couldn't find the krone - because I couldn't.
<3> Tron: Always a PITA
<11> whyzzyrd: There's a Maplins just down the road from this office - I'll form an exepedition to there tomorrow morning - they should have that kind of kit.
<3> Tron: good luck. Maplin's blow.
<3> Tron: RS and CPC are all we use.
<11> whyzzyrd: Yes. Yes they do. I was down there on Sunday to see if they had one of those little vacuum cleaners used to **** the dust puppies from PC's. They didn't have any.
<11> Which, er, ****ed. Or didn't. Er.
<3> Tron: canned air.
<3> Tron: oh, and outside, not near fire sensors.
<11> whyzzyrd: Canned air blows. :P
<3> Tron: so long as it's not indoors, canned air blowing is just fine.
<3> Tron: I've been thinking of buying a compressor for this actually.
<11> whyzzyrd: I refuse to use canned air. I might as well breathe in (a little away from the PC motherboard, and give it a big puff myself.
<3> Tron: pipe-attach outside..
<3> Tron: Most people can't blow that hard.
<3> Tron: I'll make no further comment, in case you can nominate anyone..
<11> whyzzyrd: I prefer to vacuum.
<3> Tron: makes no odds if it's outside.
<3> Tron: and a proper Vac with a toner-grade filter and anti-static pipes is $bignum.
<11> whyzzyrd: I used to have one of those machines when i was an SGI support engineer, made by RS (of course), and very handy.
<3> Tron: we have one, but it's such a waste of time compared with a pile of PC's and a compressed air line.
<11> whyzzyrd: AH well, we'll have to agree to disagree on this one :)
<1> Tron, ever played doom on infinitereality? :P
<3> Tron: If I don't have to do it, vacuum. If I have to do it, compressed-air.
<11> fredk: Never got the chance B)
<1> Tron, aww ****y
<11> fredk: Now those babies were nice.
<12> time to head out...later
<1> Tron, no ****, I just owned a crappy indigo 2
<11> fredk: Heheh
<11> fredk: Nice machines in their time. Extremely obsolete nowadays of course.
<1> Tron, extreme graphics I believe it was.. which, to be honest..even today alot of graphics cards cant keep up with polygon plotting
<1> even for such an old box
<3> Maximum Impact
<1> whyzzyrd, max impact is fairly sweet..isnt it?
<3> fredk: I expect so.
<3> fredk: Never booted the bugger.
<11> fredk, whyzzyrd: The graphics cards are ****ing HUGE though. THey're like joining together 3 PC graphics cards lengthwise and then doubling them up ;)
<1> whyzzyrd, go away, ****er :P
<3> Tron: oh yes. It's *huge* inside.
<1> Tron, indeed, I did open it up and look at it
<3> fredk: lack of things like modem and erm, until recently screen put me off a bit.
<11> When i first saw them I was ever so slightly awed. THEN I saw them in action. B)
<3> fredk: I've a 21" SGI trinitron for it now.
<11> whyzzyrd: Now those monitors were mucho expensive.
<3> Tron: I bet. Same as my Sun 24" WS trinitrons.
<1> I think I had a 20" trinitron
