Why would anyone spend 250 dollars on an opteron 140 or 240, to have performance worse than even a dual mp 2500 system? Maybe I'm missing something here, but does anything else think that the low end opterons are almost a joke for the price? The core clock speed is so low, that its not even worth looking at I suppose. And, while the other model opteron 1XX's are quite a bit cheaper than their 2xx counterparts, the 140 is the same price or more than the 240 at lots of places. :\
