vlad, rob, bhearsum and myself sat down this morning at FSOSS and went
over what we needed to move forward with the new talos setup.

For each platform, I have suggested that we have 3 identical machines
running at half speed (speedsteped down) with more cycles than we are
currently using.  3 machines so that if one is acting up we can tell
that the other two aren't.

Machines that we need:
Priority | OS
---------+-------------------------
#1       | XP
#1       | Mac OSX 10.4
#1       | Linux (Ubuntu)
#2       | Mac OSX 10.5 (final)
#3       | Vista (super duper edition?)

We would also like to have 1 non-chrome machine for each platform so
that we can more easily identify chrome-only regressions.

(This is a total of 18 machines)

Todo:
- Speedstep on mac
- Speedstep on linux
- talos GC patch (sicking)
- increase cycles (15 or 20 -- whatever the magic number for lowest
noise is)
- image machines so that we can quickly deploy new ones
