Title: Came across a new toy
Post by: Gunner on January 18, 2011, 12:19:12 AM
My shop upgraded some of their computers... said this one was too slow!  So I took this box... I seen two fans on the back... opened it up and seen two big heat sinks... (remind me of a high rise)  Hooked up a spare kb and mouse... came to find out it has 2 Xeon 2.66 Ghz processors...  How are these Xeon processors?  Guess it is better to have 2 2.66GHz chips over my 1 P4 2.4 GHz?  Didn't think I would come across a good freebie :-)  it is good isn't it?

it is probably slow for the way the OS is built
