I would take them more seriously if they would respin that board with
the Ion chipset so that we could get 4 gigs of RAM.  And more seriously
still if they would add support for ECC memory.

Still, I'd try one of those SuperMicro boards if I could find more
confirmation of them working well with Solaris.
