Hmmm, I've had people raise doubts about Toms Hardware to
me before.  Pointing to who funds them, where they get
their help to benchmark, etc.

useful information, but a grain of salt is in order (kosher
salt, this week :)

So that means they do something different than anyone else and
are less likely to have drivers?  Is this like the modems
the "break the mold" and don't use Hayes AT commands?


I'm gonna demand hardware RAID/SATA/Firewire2 cards.

Useful info,as I said.
