Yeah, but how easy would it be to work in! :up:

Incidentally, the Clean Water project is a bonanza for points on Sossamans running 32bit Linux without needing a ton of RAM. If, however, you DO have tons of RAM and a good connection (and a robust HDD) the Clean Energy project seems to have a straight connection to points Nirvana!

The place I found wants $20.70 each.
Yeah, they're all over the internet. Most places I've found so far just link back to that one.
I also found an ebay listing for a PAIR that ended at 99cents. <grieve>
Yep, I was surprised no one bid higher than that. Got them cheap. :)Quote:

yep, I did when I had it.. but then I got too many HDDs.. & I wasnt about to buy a hi-end 16+ SATA port RAID controller - there just seemed something wrong with putting a ~USD$1K RAID controller in a ~USD$150 rig :p:Quote:
