Doug, Re: Too bad blasting mutant aliens is what the high-end consumer desktop market is all about. I guess Intel will have to make it up on low-end volume.

Wasn't Elmer referring to Ace's Hardware's upcoming 4P server review? I agree that servers should be benchmarked as they are sold, rather than as they can be tweaked. You won't find many end users tweaking their servers the same way an enthusiast would tweak their desktop system; nor would you find many enthusiasts that can afford 4P servers to tweak. And that, of course, is why so many people are questioning what reason Ace's would have for benchmarking a tweaked server, other than catering to their AMD aligned audience.
