Dear Flowers, I am upgrading the software on my LSR II and my FACSAria. Due to budget limitations I am supplying my own PCs (funding for new equipment is OK, but finding funds to keep what you have running or to upgrade are impossible to come by!!). It looks like I will be the first site in Australia to run the HP XW 4600 on my instruments (& one of the first with 6.1.whatever is just now being released). I can get basic specs of BD's USA website, and my local BD service engineer has been very helpful, but can anybody give me the full computer specs? Any clues on what I can do to build in some redundancy? ie is Intel® Core™2 Duo E8500 processor (3.16 GHz, 6 MB L2 cache, 1333 MHz FSB) the best processor, and which of these is best for graphics; ATI FireGL V5600 (512 MB)NVIDIA Quadro FX1700 (512 MB)NVIDIA Quadro FX4600 (512 MB) Regards Rob Wadley Mater Medical Research Institute Brisbane Australia _________________________________________________________________ Are you paid what you're worth?
