Larry, Thanks for the detailed explanation. I suspect that is the case and that the BP may have fudged a bit on their explanation for the misconfiguration or at the very least I misunderstood it. From your explanation, I don't doubt that the BP or the distributor's configuration specialist simply entered 8GB into IBM's configurator and it spit out a configuration with 2 - 4GB features which, evidently unknown to them, translated into 4-1GB DIMMs per feature (quads). It appears what should have been configured was one 8GB feature which would have cost significantly more due to the increased chip density but which would have left room for growth without leaving memory sitting on the table. Kind regards, BJ On 3/5/07, Larry Bolhuis <lbolhuis@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
So the short of it is the BP screwed up because Rochester built what was ordered. Rochester ALWAYS Builds what was ordered. We at Frankenseries.com <http://frankenseries.com/>, however, build whatever the heck we please. And sometimes we pay for that. - Larry
