Post #141,269 by broomberg 2/11/04 8:10:13 PM Reply	Done computer config, thanks My budget was $7K. Large Ultra Quiet case Dual Opteron 2.2Ghz 4GB RAM 3Ware 8 disk SATA controller 6 x 250GB disks Plextor DVD burner Gainward card. WHAT THE HELL IS A GAINWARD?

I was SO close to the 2nd 2GB of memory, I had to shave someting. If I need it later, I'll make the tech department give me one. It'll be fibre at that point anyway. Final amount including shipping: $7,000.60 I figure I'll give them the 60 cents.

Lots of really bad code too. After many failed productions, taking many hours to get to that point, I said I reguired faster equipment. A V880 would be nice. When asked if that would fix the problem, I said: No. It'll allow us to find the fuck-ups faster.
