I am currently planning to use msi's k6speedster series (info here: http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/server/svr/pro_svr_detail.php?UID=637
i was thinking of using 2 dual-core opterons, but am not sure if I want to go with xista or xp for my primary OS - although i'm gonna be doing a dual-boot with various flavors of linux till i find the one i like best.
Also i have heard that vista does not properly see/use the second processor on a mobo like the one im wanting, that i would effectively just have the second processor and the ram with it sitting there useless. Any truth to that rumor?
