Well according to Weitek they are getting 60k xstones...

As for a server I have the specs here so maybe while I wait around
for the 928 to arrive I can write a weitek p9000 server. :-)

I am expecting the weitek server to about the same as the 928 server..

So folks, we are moving into  high-end graphics boards which are becoming
a commodity. 


Cheers,
Amancio
