Chris, Basic spec as follows: DARC ultimate 2x Xeon E5620 2.4GHz Quad core Quiet CPU coolers and exhaust fan (120mm) Tyan, 12 Dimm slots. 3 PCIe, 1 PCI slots 6GB (6x1GB) DDR3 1333MHz 320GB OS disk 1TB Audio Disk 700W Quiet PSU HD3450 ATI dual ouput silent cooling DVD R/RW 19" Rack case with acoustic insulation Windows 7 Pro custom install I've added another 1TB sample drive, upped the RAM to 12GB (it'll go up to 64). Darc are adding a serial port for my DecTalk and putting a Windows 7/64 dual boot in place (for actual production and my development work) at no additional charge. When the cost of the 6 core processors come down I can refresh the machine to get 24-thread operation, so this thing will have some serious legs. It takes up 4U of rack space and the cooling is front to back, so there's no problem having other gear above and/or below it and radiating heat. Don't ask for the price in dollars - the price in Pounds is still making me shiver:) Best wishes.
