Honestly, I'm not quite sure what warrants making me into a subject of this thread out of nowhere. This thread has been about "G4 vs. G5" originally and quickly turned into a thread about the Cyrus/X5000. I've been trying to clear some misunderstandings and questions in this thread, in particular with regards to the Cyrus board design, by offering technical information. I can't remember anybody has taken offense to anything of that, quite to the contrary.
