Hi list,

Like I said, I will have an Intel Itanium2 system arriving soon.  I 
didn't know this when I bid on eBay -- but it's capable of 2 Itanium2 
CPUs (mine has one CPU installed) and it can take 24GB RAM.  Wow.  (Mine 
has 2GB installed).  It can also take a 438GB of SCSI disk (mine has 2x 
36GB Ultra320 SCSI disks).

Hmm... going to have some fun with this ;-)

I've downloaded all the IA-64 manuals and EFI docs from Intel, and I'm 
studying the FreeBSD and Linux Itanium sources.  But I may need some 
help along the way if anyone here programs the IA-64.

Thanks,
James
