Thanks for such a nice overview and lots of bits of informative detail
from your experience

I like the IBM x3400 and x3500 pedestal servers (which, while they have
lots of PCI-E slots, only have x8, so no big graphics cards), or the IBM
I'm not sure I understand what you mean there; the `lots' refers to
PCI-E slots, but what does the `x8' refer to?

8 x PCI-E lanes.  High end graphics cards use 16.
