    Sossaman stuff on the way...

    Damn you, Dave! It's all your fault!

    I just convinced my wife to let me order enough parts for 1.5 sossaman crunchers... now I just need to find some way to budget for two more CPUs and a hard drive (also need to look into rigging them to both run off of the same PSU). Hopefully all of the parts will get here in time for the big push

    At this point, I think my plan is to sell a bunch of my spare parts to get the second sossaman system running within a month or so and then just run the two sammy's full time... it'll be a hell of a lot less expensive than what I've been tinkering with for the past few days (lighting up everything I've got). I may also turn one of them into a file/media server for the house.
    I'm doing science and I'm still alive...

    Petra I have a set of cables that you'd need for running 2 on one PSU and all the info you need as I've done it before just shoot me a PM about the cables if you want.

    No truer words have been spoken.
