Is anyone perhaps interested in trading a zx2000 for an rx2620?
An rx2620 with "Montecito" (dual-core, hyperthreading, VT-x,
etc.), no less!  So you could run HPVM (also known as Integrity
VM) and run mulitple virtualized VMS 'guests'.  That's 4 cores,
4 threads (so 8 logical processors, pretty much), compared to
the single-core processor of a zx2000.

I've recently put my rx2620s up for sale, which would leave me
Integrity-less and I'd still like to run VMS I64.  A zx2000
would be better for me, considering the lower power consumption
and that I wouldn't need a lot of processing power.

This is what I can offer for a zx2000:

   - 2 * Intel Itanium 9015 (SL9PC, released in 2007),
     "Montecito"dual-core and hyperthreading processors with
     VT-x at 1400 MHz with 12 Mbytes cache (400 MHz FSB),
     installed last year (brand-new out of the box);
   - 8 Gbytes ECC-registered DDR-SDRAM;
   - HP iLO/MP card, with on-board ATi Radeon 7000 and SSH
     license;
   - LSI 1030 dual-channel Ultra320 SCSI on-board, with
     additional external HD68 connector;
   - Intel i82546 dual GbE NIC on-board;
   - HP rx2620 4-slot PCI-X card cage (also have one with
     an AGP slot and three PCI-X slots, as seen in the
     zx6000 notably);
   - HP rx2620 650 watt hot-swap PSU (one extra available);
   - HP slimline DVD-ROM drive.


Let me know if you're interested.
