Re: Incidentally, the E-5400 uses the 840 and lists 2G RDRAM as the max... No, it lists 1Gig as the max available - it says the motherboard could accept 2Gig if 512 meg DIMMS were available - but they aren't (at least to Gateway). We've had a workstation with 2Gig of ram and an Athlon 850 for a while now. It's used for the initial digital processing of output from a large format scanner and the images are as large as 1.7 gigabytes. The motherboard is an Abit KA7, the memory modules are from Apacer, and the scanner is a CalComp 810C. It's very stable - it routinely runs complex polygon dissolves overnight and has never crashed. With 2Gig of SDRAM it cost less than one of those Gateways with 1Gig of RDRAM. Dan
