Just out of curiosity.... what are your electric bills
like???
Doesn't the 6610 use a 220 line? Also, what about cooling.... my old
Microvax II use to push so much damned heat out of it, I used to be
able to practically heat my 1 room attic apartment in the winter from
that beastie.
Nah, the 6000 line uses 208V 3phase... but there's a simple coversion to
220 single phase. I haven't measured, but rumour has it drawing about the
same as 3-4 '486 boxen. I'd imagine that's just one processor, though.
My 6320 doesn't seem to out out as much heat as my network rack, but then
again it has some big fans...
