Our heaviest use of an A7V to date is a server with 1GHZ CPU, 512 meg SDRAM, an Adaptec 3200s dual channel RAID controller, 7 - 36 gig 10K RPM IBM 1" drives (nice drives!), and an HP 40x6 autoloader. It's primarily a file server but is running SQL Sever 7 on Windows 2000 server. It sounds like you have not been paying enough attention to MickeyD - AMD processors are no good for corporate use and certainly not reliable enough for servers :^)
