[HECnet] So who's looking forward to all the cheap second-handItanium gear that will soon be flooding the market?

Isn't that the difference between the workstation and the server model lines: the attention to lower soundlevels for the first?

PS
A VAX may be more quiet but when they're all up and running in my attic an I64 is probably quiet in comparison :-)
Not that I own one however.

Is your zx6000 crazy noisy as well? My rx2600 (RHESUS, btw, on HECnet) sounds like a freaking jet engine..

I strongly suspect that's one reason I got my zx6000 so cheap. Itanium is about to become an ex-technology I suspect!

Incidentally, if anyone comes across front, top and side covers and the steel pedestal stand for a zx6000 I need them.
