Gotcha.

Know exactly how you feel, btw.

Took me all of 2 seconds to come up with that free, easy, widely recognized hdd benchmark.
Your search was much easier I'm sure.

Well don't wear yourself out.

Let's see...new Raptors, first RAID array...naw, nuthin to get excited bout here.
Surely you are just a teensey, eeentsie bit curious how they're working?

Or does Linux suck that out of you?

Curiously, my pack of free Ubuntu distros arrived a few weeks ago.
I tried the "Run from the disk" version for a while.
I must credit it for recognizing all my hardware and going right to the internet.
The desktop was retarded and I'm too lazy to explore it.

See man, linux isn't that bad these days, it isn't a nerdy black screen white text hacker thing anymore, there are clear alternitives to windows, I use fedora core 4 comes prepacked with gaim, and xchat, firefox, connects to the interenet automatically, its awesome.

I might try Ubuntu some time soon.

I was very impressed with the installation of the MandrakeLinux 10.1, I felt sure something had gone wrong. From putting the first cd in the drive to up-and-runnning in under 4 minutes.
