By that logic, why would anyone want a Daystar Genesis or a Mac IIfx or a Quadra 700/700/900? Because it's cool, because it can still do useful work? What is your opinion? If your only interest is the lastest and greatest, why hang out on an old hardware centric site? I'm not trying to start a flame war, just curious.Who wants Dual P III Xeons when you can build yourself a Athlon x2 64 system for like $150USD and have a waaaayyy more powerful system. It also has SATA and can support Opteron 4-core CPUs if you get the AM2 or 939 Socket. I have an Athlon x2 64 1.9Ghz w/ 2GB RAM and a Radeon 9550 AGP 8x 256MB card. I think it cost me like $300 Total to build. Waaayyy faster than the later P III Xeons. And it's damn nice too
The PW470 in question is a P4 Xeon family machine with onboard SATA RAID and free is still cheaper than a build it yourself system.
BTW, I'm typing this on a Athlon x2-64 system.
