The Dell's run Windows? If you put Linux on them, it would be
interesting to see the relative performance of OSX and Linux on the
Dual Xeons. I guess they should perform very similarly.

I can give you the info on a dual boot win/linux box.
Exact same architechture, so it will isolate the different OSes.
That will have to wait til i get around to rebooting
a couple of times first though.
Cheers,
bob

On this topic,
has anyone done enough "statistics" to have a feeling of the fastest
architecture for IDL? My limited experience shows Linux is faster
than SunOS (and Linux is easier for dlm ans all). Anyone have any
feeling here on this? I am curious about Mac vs linux and windoze.
As my next machine will probably be a mac,
Brian
