Looks like they fit 55 shuttles per rack, so 6 racks of space. Very small in terms of size. My Sun 10K's take up 3 racks each.
Not sure who makes those plain metal racks, but I picked some up at costco(brown box), and they are sweet. They have big caster wheels so you can get to the cables. I use them in the closet, tv rack, and my server rack.

I use Barts Boot Disk, supports most network card drivers, and has IP/IPX/Netbui (and ssh/scp.exe files), mouse with GUI worked fine.
I can boot any pc in the house, mount the/backup share on my linux box, and ghost any PC in the house to the server. I created a bootable cdrom with his floppy disk image, so I can just boot off cdrom with ghost on it, has configs already set. Supports pcmcia cards too, works on my laptop. SSH had full vt102 supports, I was using VI and links.

Well, strange, X ran with the new drivers (Mandrake 9.0) but I know there are problems with the drivers. I think the DRI is the wrong version. I couldnt run X by itself, but when I did an init5, X was running, and the/var/log/XFree.9.log said I was running the new drivers.

Raw GPRS is expensive, early adopters pay the higher prices, the prices have been dropping for wireless data every month. Unlimited plans for everything comes out someday.
Also, some Carriers use compression proxy servers, that can give you incredible speed, but you need to use the client software.

Gentoos portage of the Xfree doesnt support the 9700 yet. (Thou I saw 4.2.99-3 was out last week, which might) I know the CVS version of Xfree did find my 9700 with --configure.
BTW, Curse of Binary Distros? Funny, since Mandrake Cooker is binary, and KDE3.1rc3 and XFT, Truetype2 all work perfectly. Cant get that working on gentoo 1.4rc. I'm dual booting linux, Gentoo rocks for speed, but mandrake cooker has the rpms out quicker.
I'll be so freaking glad whatever they call it, as long as AA fonts work in Mozilla/Phoenix, Phoenix compiles without problems, and KDE3.1rc3 (or RC4/release) compiles in Gentoo.
There will be light rail, it will feed the Monorail to the north and south. (Which we need, full light rail would of been better.)
Commute time by monorail will be 100% quicker than bus, good reason for people to change from bus and car.
The Cost is high, but if we wait another 15 years (or is it 20 now, that light rail has been voted on) it will be 5 billion.

I will admit that not everyone uses modchips for legal purposes, but there are many uses for them other than pirating games. With a modchip, you can write and run your own code, and run Linux, things you cannot do on an unmodified box.
Microsoft's support team was not trained to deal with modded xboxes, so I can see why there would be a rule to not giving support to those with the mods done.
You dont turn away customers because you dont support them, you still collect the monthly fee and turn them away for support. Whats next M$ saying anyone with a linux partition cant download service packs for windows?

So there you have it; the elusive NV30 has surfaced in the form of GeForce FX. ATI has won the first round with the Radeon 9700 Pro, what will be most interesting will be what ATI has up their sleeves when the GeForce FX hits the shelves in February.
Myself, I had a GF3 Ti500, I upgraded to a GF4 4600, but it wasnt much faster, returned it. Then a couple games came out (Battlefield 1942, Unreal2003) that really needed some gfx horsepower. So I bought the Ati 9700, Amazing. I can run older games with 6x AA perfectly, and Newer games run at 60FPS with 2x AA enabled. The GFX card works fine with the CVS version of Xfree also. (Or vesa mode for older 4.2.1) Also, I can output to TV at 1024x768, and have it mirror my monitor, great when playing some multiplayer games, or playing some divx/svcds. The Ati 9700 is a very nice product, and found some great forums at Rage3d for questions and updated beta drivers. (Like the new DX 9.0 drivers and DX 9.0 demos)

Im planning to play with it the binary drivers this weekend, also, I havnt tried Unreal yet on the ATI. I will post back with details later.
Raw GPRS is expensive, early adopters pay the higher prices, the prices have been dropping for wireless data every month. Unlimited plans for everything comes out someday.
Also, some Carriers use compression proxy servers, that can give you incredible speed, but you need to use the client software.
BTW, Why would I need a wireless phone? Phone booths are everywhere! Oh wait, that was 20 years ago...
Its funny, over at Been reading about features that they disable on the 9700, that are enabled on the 8500, like 16bit Anti-Aliasing. Alot of flight sim people are bitching, the 8500 supports it, the 9700 doesnt, and the card cost 400 bux when it came out.
I like the idea of a standard driver installation, as long as its not 500 megs and comes on a CD. (Like SoundBlaster drivers)
Gentoos portage of the Xfree doesnt support the 9700 yet. (Thou I saw 4.2.99-3 was out last week, which might) I know the CVS version of Xfree did find my 9700 with --configure.
BTW, Curse of Binary Distros?

If my dvd player had an EULA, that stated I could not play rated R dvd's on it, do I still have to agree to its EULA?
I hope people find a way to mask the Mod chips, this EULA business is getting out of hand.
I will admit that not everyone uses modchips for legal purposes, but there are many uses for them other than pirating games. With a modchip, you can write and run your own code, and run Linux, things you cannot do on an unmodified box.
Amen, svcd/vcd/mpeg/divx/mp3 player...
It's very, very simple. If you don't like the rules, don't join the service.
Ya know, name one EULA you agree with. Modchips and hacks have legal uses, like my dreamcast linux box.
Microsoft's support team was not trained to deal with modded xboxes, so I can see why there would be a rule to not giving support to those with the mods done.
