[hashcash] Interesting hardware

10:21:05:<LaZZ> itanium?
10:21:22:<Zan_Lynx> Yep. I got a dual 733 MHz, 1 GB RAM Itanium 1 on eBay for $400.
10:21:30:<LaZZ> wow
10:22:41:<chromatix> zan: when you get it going, can I run some benchmarks on it?
10:22:45:<Zan_Lynx> Sure, chromatix.

That will be an extremely interesting machine to try out. It's not terribly relevant to most potential users, because Itaniums are as rare as hen's teeth, but I'll at least be able to compare the benchmarketed scores against the actual performance, relative to more conventional hardware.
