T4 systems suck. We have problems all the time with the LDOMs spinning up and taking out the entire frame.
Also, isn't it about time Solaris died?

Got a small system here that I use for learning.. I started out with VMware workstation 8 and 9. I've since tried Xen and VirtualBox. VirtualBox works great with CENTOS as the host OS. Very stable.

Totally agree with this. ION systems can play 1080p content no sweat. They also are very low power, so the system is quiet.
Also, why in the world would you run XBMC under Windows?????? XBMC in Linux supports VDPAU, which is how low end stuff like the ION can play 1080p flawlessly.

In my case, the only cure was for me to remove AVG and switch to ESET.

over half of my team telecommutes, and we have used IRC as an effective communication tool for a very long time.
