Noteworthy price difference
At one of the suppliers I noticed a funny difference today:
- Intel Xeon QC X3360 2.83GHz, 1333MHz, 12MB, S775, Box: 235,29 euro
- Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 2.83GHz, 1333MHz, S775, Box: 368,91 euro
Mentioned prices are excluding VAT.
I am happy its not the other way around, since we stick with Xeon normally. As far as I know there is not much difference between the two CPU's besides the branding and obviously the pricing.

A definite don’t buy if you like hardware support
We had a night of computer terror:
- A terrible badly supported intel mainbord (dg965ot). Basicly its chips are not supported in Linux and it just won't boot. http://dev.osso.nl/peter/blog/2006/12/28/why-intel-dg965ot-sucks-balls/, nice specs, but just buy another board (at least for now).
- Besides that fedora core 6 x86_64 doesn't seem to work well with software raid1, it sucks balls: http://dev.osso.nl/peter/blog/2006/12/28/why-fedora-core-6-64-bit-x86-raid-1-suck-balls/
- Too finish off the night peters laptop died as well. hehe.
Sometimes I hate computers so much.
