Sound I don't need, and the video is ATI Radeon 7000M IPG, which is
supposedly a pretty good chipset.  As to the sound, I currently live
with an extremely noisy model 270.  I plan to move it and the new 520
into their own little area.  Compared to that, the xSeries shouldn't be
an issue.  And if it really, truly is a problem, it will go live with
the other servers.
