Is your teddy bear rack-mountable, and does it have a dedicated
management processor? If so, we'll talk :)

At the very least, we want to do some heavy testing with FreeBSD. If we
get the time, it would be fun to contrast them to Solaris. It does
require that I reinstall Solaris, though :)

How would you go about tweaking the machine for maximum efficiency? We
have around 13 GB RAM free at the moment, just sitting doing nothing,
and that might just as well be used for caching.
