I received a second email from OpenLabs a little while ago. He said that even though "theoretically" neKo/64 could operate under Linux or Suse OpenLabs will only be loading WindowsXP from the factory. In regarding upgrading neKo from WindowsXP 32-Bit to WindowsXP 64-Bit he said that would be considered over time (when WindowsXP 64-Bit makes it to the market). Also regarding switching out the 64 Bit AMD Opteron with a 64 Bit Intel Processor he said that would be considered also. Of course doing so would require a new Motherboard but as you stated Benno ATX Motherboards under Wintel would not be that expensive replacing the one that is used with the Opteron 64 bit processor.

Best regards,
Mike

Long Live Linux! Yes Benno, competition is very GOOD!!
