I normally would too.
I don't anymore for HP products since hearing "factory integration"
regarding plug-in PCI cards.

ok - thanks - I've seen the fewer DIMM slots version but didn't
notice the FX-e on the motherboard (or VGA connector on the back).

I have seen a B2000 with 8 DIMM slots and 6 PCI slots like a C3000.
This is no prototype - a real production unit.
I'll have a chance to look more closely at this box again
in the near future and will take some pictures.

thanks for the correction,
