content: NASA folks would probably go for the two-socket Talos II system. This one is like a cheaper version of the "Lite" with fewer RAM slots and integrated audio and no SAS support. The processors will be the same Sforza chips, but I think I read that the will only support the 4 core (16 thread) and maybe the 8 core (32 thread) chips. Those are 375 USD and 595 USD respectively; the 18-core and 22-core cips are the ones priced above a grand.
