That was my first thought as well, but our feeling pointed more towards software. The same hardware has been running for 2 years without a glitch, and having muliple panics at the same kernel address made me eliminate hardware as a possible cause. The machine is *not* overclocked I might add. I'm planning on replacing the machine with a PII-class device in Janurary. Will let you know if any problems persist.
