files (except for ServerName). But on one, if a CGI script takes
longer than 300 seconds, it times out. The other, not. Why is that?
\_ Perhaps network equipment configuration. Or try comparing settings
in /proc/sys/net.
\_ I ran /sbin/sysctl -a | grep tcp, all settings are the same.

fanless system that uses AMD Operon or Pentium M that is clocked more
than 1GHz? where to get chassis like these? can't find it at Fry's.
\_ No, but I have a fanless 800 MHz Via C3, with a big Zalman heatsink.
Got the CPU on ebay for about $50 and got the heatsink (CNPS-6000AlCu
Flower Cooler) from http://endpcnoise.com for about $40.. Runs great.

Core 2 Duo with WinXP Pro and 3 years warranty. $3,106 after tax!
Dang, some rich kids will be spending bux on their computer for
undergrad WoW.

just quieter than the one I have now (something I could put in a
bedroom and still fall asleep). Can someone recommend a prebuilt

it is unbearable to put on my laptop, even when it is idling.
In addition the battery lasts only 2 hours at max, when only
5% of the CPU is used. In contrast, my 1.5GHz Pentium M is
pretty cool, and lasts 2.5 hours with a smaller battery. My G4
is also really really cool and lasts almost 4 hours. What the

buying Pentium D machines from Dell otherwise.

or a workstation? I see HP has workstations using dual-core
Opterons. Look for xw9300. A bit pricy, but you get what you

mozilla.
