| [FP] Let's Vote on Foldy6!
Per this thread »[FP-Board] Board Input Needed-Foldy6
We are needing authorization for the FP Board to expend funds for the replacement of Foldy6 that has met its maker...
There is already a $250 match donation by an anonymous Angel, plus some recent donations to the treasury. This, with the match from GarG is a wonderful deal for everyone involved. Perhaps we can even get enough in the near future to set up another box for someone?
Anyway, I am getting ahead of myself!
Please respond in the thread if you are "for" or "against" the expenditure of FP donated funds as outlined for the replacement of Foldy6.
Thanks!

Yes, assuming the plan is to buy another Dell quad (because of the warranty) with a legit Windows license. If funds allow, a license for Vista Premium or Ultimate and the RAM upgrade to 3G would be preferred.

| Yes to the Dell Quad, Windows, and the one I saw the link to was already 3GB RAM so I think we're on the right track, correct?

said by sortofageek  :Yes, assuming the plan is to buy another Dell quad (because of the warranty) with a legit Windows license. If funds allow, a license for Vista Premium or Ultimate and the RAM upgrade to 3G would be preferred. For reasons I have expressed before, I concur. Vista Basic is a non-starter. If XP is still available, I would recommend that. If Vista, 32 bit.
And, I vote yes.

It comes with Vista Home Premium included in the $499 price.
quote:
Genuine Windows Vista® Home Premium Service Pack 1 [Included in Price]
Would that suffice?
$120 extra for Vista Ultimate seems a bit pricey. I don't think a folder would need entertainment or business benefits?
quote:
Genuine Windows Vista® Ultimate Service Pack 1 [add $120 or $4/month1]
Dell recommended: The most complete version of Windows Vista®. Delivers both home entertainment and business benefits.
I would suggest the $10 upgrade to the 3GIG 800Mhz ram, rather than the standard 3GIG 667Mhz RAM, however. As Howie pointed out in the Dell thread.
Other that that question, and suggestion, I voterd Yep. |

Yes, to Dell quad with Windows XP 32 bit edition 3GB RAM etc. etc. etc. as noted earlier in the thread...
What's the new balance in the treasury? Are we getting close to forcing GarG to take out a second mortgage yet for the match?
