I'm assuming the 2000 is the 2000+? <...> From a quick scan of their TRM, it looks like the 2000+ is basically a 2000 and should probably work. (albeit with 1 CPU, as we don't do MP on alpha yet). I have no idea what the CS20 is under the hood, I don't see any technical docs regarding the CS20 on API's site.. I'd hold off on buying a CS20 until you see some sort of an announcement that we support it. If anybody from API is reading this, I'd be happy to get FreeBSD going on a CS20...
