Makes me think that it'd be a very good thing if someone made some testing kits that new board buyers could load, test everything out, including things they're not likely to use, and produce a report. I've seen so-called benchmarking programs for Windows, but they're generally just megs/sec bragging sort of things. Not a test that checks that bits going through a port come out unscathed under certain conditions, etc. -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
