    I all but gave up on getting pie anytime soon. Costs too darn much for my budget to try. Started trying and my wallet screamed so I figured I better lay off trying. For now haha.

    You're not a real cruncher until you have a pair of Xeon hexes or Opteron 61xx's.

    I already have my SR-2 running dual 5680's but I will be moving my quad core machines over to Hexa-cores as I can sneak them past the wife

    Johnny, you hit the nail on the head, this teams generosity and giving nature is a big part of why pie is so hard to obtain and even more satisfying

    This too is why our non pie feeding members are so much stronger.

    You do that and your wallet will definitely cry. I did, and it's still smoldering from the fire. Burnt a big hole in it.
