this 48-core server...

[Matthew Dillon]

:I'm considering bidding on this 48-core box:

:Does anyone have experience with it and can I use all the cores?

:Thanks!

    That looks like our monster.dragonflybsd.org (which is a supermicro
    48-core opteron in a similar configuration).

    DragonFly will certainly run on it.  Linux will.  Presumably other OSs
    too, assuming the box isn't damaged.
