I have a dual core Opteron system (soon to have a new version supporting
virtualization bits - I hope - awaiting funding). I am pretty good at
RPM packaging and can certainly help with the support package migration.
Testing and more testing...

Hopefully I will also have a multiple (shooting for 100) virtualized
client test bed for LTSP set up as well.

Long range goal: I think a quad-chip quad core Opteron 8000 with native
Infiniband would make an excellent base system for a blade stack
cluster...
