Just got a call from DRS requesting me to make a list of equipment and prices I have and need. So one of the first things I'm looking at is rackmount PCs, something cable of handling all VDJ features and that will let me use my delta 1010lt. Well I found this http://www.sweetwater.com/creation_station/rack.php
Has anybody tried this line and do the specs look enough to handle any possible feature? Thanks;^]

I definatly like the rack system, though the HP blows it away by specs alone. Still, my thinking is that the rack is designed for pro audio plus it's got XP instead of Vista. The biggest thing I'm wondering about is the graphics card, I want to be able to use VDJ to it's fullest abilities & I'm still a newb to using video (currently with a Radeon 9200 128mb, pentium 4 3.2 ghz with HT, 2 gb RAM);^]

it's a 512 vid card - that's enough to handle VDJ
