Curious, according to Intel, it the i3 doesn't do ECC: http://www.intel.com/support/processors/corei3/sb/CS-031175....

But the Supermicro board says it can: http://www.supermicro.com/xeon_3400/Motherboard/X8SIL.cfm

The board also supports Xeon processors, so it might be that it only supports ECC with Xeon. However, I didn't see anything in the docs to support this, instead it says "Dual Core processors of Ci3 and Pentium: support ECC UDIMM only"

I'm curious since I ended up springing for Xeon in my system specifically for ECC. Now I'm wondering if I made a mistake...

Very interesting! =P

The following concerns me, from the privacy policy: "AVOS may sell, transfer or otherwise share some or all of its assets, including your Personal Information, in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization or sale of assets or in the event of bankruptcy."
Start easy and get yourself fit and flexible at the beginning. Remember that until your black belt you are really only getting rid of bad habits in your movement and reactions.

Oh yeah, I'm a big fan of the Bujinkan... and a 5th Dan...

Attempting to get TX/RX Labs (http://www.txrxlabs.org), the first hackerspace in Houston, up and going. I've had lots of fun attempting to get a lawyer so we could get our 501(c)3 in the hopes that we can also get a larger workspace. I have gotten the webservers and website up in the nick of time, and I've got a bunch of stickers and t-shirts I will be selling at the Next HOPE and at DEFCON 18 for the group, and adding a party/membership drive in Houston on the same weekend as HOPE will probably get us enough members to get over a vital hump so we can offer more to our members.

I also get to go through the same drill with Locksport International (http://www.locksport.com). In fact, visit the Lockpicking Village at The Next HOPE and DEFCON, or Security Snobs (http://www.securitysnobs.com) and buy some lockpicks or t-shirts to help your fellow hackers!
