Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to Building a high-capacity, high-availability OpenACS solution...

Hi Don,

Could be.  Maybe the Intel salesman was just trying to assure his customer, the guy I spoke with who built systems using Intel CPUs, that paying more for the retail box CPUs was justified.  I don't know.

The subject came up in discussion of why the retail box cost more than the OEM/white box CPUs.  And what one gets for the price difference.

I have no direct knowledge on the difference.  I figured I would pass along the above tidbit FWIW since the thread dealt with hardware.

Take care,

Louis
