Usually NS2 is on another network... If its a 64-bit Xeon, AMD would be the right choice. Last gen Xeons and before... I386. 7.0 has a lot of SMP improvements besides all the other fixes, features and improvements... Why are you shy about using it like it costs more than 6? :) -Patrick On Jun 23, 2008, at 4:38 PM, "Grant Peel" wrote: > Hi all, > > Two questions for the Web hosting types out there: > > 1.
