Minor corrections here. Max Memory at least 512Mb (the last couple of 8800s
we had here had that configuration). The 8700 and 8800 had the same CPU
set, the difference was that the 8800 had two of them. (I'm talking
Nautilus 8800 here). Polarstar 8800s had up to 4 CPUs which probably had
the same performance that the Nautilus ones given that there was only one
module difference in the CPU module set. (Yes, we had one of those too...).
