Why do you think your [2] is looking good when their [1] errata list shows all you get for 550$ is lacking what rev. 1.4 will bring, by then i assume for the regular 750$ ?
OTOH 2x SFP+ @10GbE is nothing to sneeze at. Regarding the 'Work-Station-level' specs, which GPU would you use in there, assuming you'd want more than a simple frame buffer?
I mean one which is fully supported by opensource drivers for that architecture and special platform quirks?
Edit: writing this from some specced out Core i7-640LM docked into assorted cybertrash. Asking because experience taught me i can throw anything at old x86/x64, while that isn't the case with anything else, even if the physical slots/interfaces ARE there. At least not for now. Catch-22.
