Re: Allocating memory to a subsystem

Aaron,

This is what IBM offered once before, and it seemed they got nothing but
complaints. I think the complaints would never end, if that were the case.

Creative, but a solution I have seen fail already..

How about a smaller model?? Look at the size of the blade! Add a couple of
drives and fit it into a case, and you will have a GREAT POWER server..

Simple, they would put artificial limits on the hardware and software.
For example, only allow 2GB of memory, only two HD's, only two
non-system user profiles, limit the amount of total HD space to 35GB,
and I am sure there are many more ways to creativly cripple it for
'customers' but not hobbyists.

Then once the hobbyist outgrows their system they simply write out a
check to "open up" the system.

Thoughts?
