Got ya:-)

Who said this box is running only linux?

I have dual boot on this box, Windows 2003 Server and Gentoo, originally
I had windows
on the 7200.2 then bought the 7200.9, cloned the drive to the new,
therefore I know the difference:-)

And yeah it is active, at least nvidias info tool in hardware manager
says it is:-)
