I'll be happy if we will have great machine for building. From my point of
view : end of may or beginning of June is good. How much time do you need to
setup/config dillon (on new hardware) as we need ? Middle of June (dillon
running) ? Is it possible from your side ?

Both of offered machines looks really nice and powerful. I would like to
vote for X4440 (AMD dual core), due our tune flags. X4450 looks a bit more
promising for computing power. Stefan, Adriaan ???

We will using recent dillon (HW) till middle of June. Please, Adriaan, say
what version of Nevada (or Solaris 10) you need there. It don't bother me,
because I don't need (strictly) a dillon at this time. I have one machine
with S10U5 (ultra20m2) and second machine with Nevada (laptop C2D 7700). It
is not too much power, but just enough for me now. I'm looking forward to
new hardware.
