Comment What do I gain? (Score 1) 86
I'm running a Microway Alpha Screamer as a web
server. This is the current base box. It's
faster than my 300 Mhz.K6 Desktop but, in most things, not much faster with RH 5.1. Byte bench
marks are less in some areas. For this to be a
big deal, more optimization and tuned apps would
help a lot. Neither box uses the proprietary slot1
architecture, however, so I do gain satisfaction.
Attn. Compaq! we want the hotter stuff cheaper.
