Okay, since noone else has asked, I feel I have to .. 'Why?' :) .. what else are you using this machine for? You could do some cool virtualization with it .. I guess I have that on my mind since I'm looking at Xen for a project here... probably using a similar spec'd machine to yours.

I'd like to take a consensus of what hardware and operating systems people are using to host their own Venue servers.

And the winner of the 'Most Ridiculously Overpowered Venueserver/Bridgeserver" is - our new server!

Its a Dell PowerEdge 1950:

Dual Quad-Core Xeon 2.66GHZ processors (w/ 2x4MB cache each) 8GB 667MHZ Memory Dual SAS 300G 10k HDD (Raid 1) Dual GB Ethernet Redundant power supply, 24X CDRW/DVD....

Forgot to mention... we're running Fedora 7 - AG3.1beta.

Cheers,

Todd
