Hi All,

I am looking at the following.

Motherboard: INTEL S5000XVN

CPU: Initially 1 INTEL QUAD XEON E5420 (will add a second CPU once VISTA is QUALIFIED)

Memory: 2 sticks of Kingston 2G(Single) 667 DDR2 ECC Fully Buffered CL5 (KVR667D2D4F5/2GI)

I use an older Digidesign chassis and I am building this box with the upcoming VISTA qualification in mind. This configuration is pretty much the internals of the new INTEL MAC systems. The board can take up to 32 gig of Ram and 2 cpus etc.

I'll run this on the current XP SP3 and dual boot it with VISTA for later.

Any thoughts appreciated.
