In my (new) search for more address bits, I ran across the newisys servers
(which are being resold by Sun as the v20z and v40z). They look like really
sweet boxes, especially because they aren't limited to 3GB of RAM.

Has anyone put OpenBSD on these yet?

They look to have straightforward architecture, but they have their own memory
controller. I don't immediately care about the SCSI controller.

Thanks!

Hmm. Thanks, I think - so there's one person who says it works great, one who
says it doesn't, and Theo who complains about the price and config. Doesn't
leave me with a great feeling :-)

I'll probably just go with a generic dual-opteron mobo for now. I'm thinking of
the ones from acmemicro, like

which seems completely straightforward...
