Fred, >>>As for comfort level....the person you referred to at work who bought a Cyrix is an isolated example. IT/IS managers remain very very reluctant to stick their necks out and buy anything but Intel, especially for critical applications such as servers. It's not worth saving a little money to get a lesser known quantity. IT managers know and trust Intel products.<<< I understand your point. It's the "Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM" line. I authorized him to buy it and try it. If it looks good and feel good...I plan to upgrade my soon. I'll give it another month<G>. We are not talking about the ES/9000 or $30, $40 million computers. I think IT/IS managers won't be sticking out their necks too far. Hell, I heard Win/NT only requires only a 166MHz machine to run. Mike
