Re: [cobalt-users] Is There A Real Difference w/ The RAQ4??

["Adam Holt" <mediadezines@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thats what I was asking, I know my OS is 6.0 which belongs ona  raq4, but if
they used the restore cd from a raq4 onto a raq3, then I may be on that, and
need to find out definitively how to see if I am on a modified raq3 that
they are passing off as a raq4.  The only way that I can do this is to
examine what cpu is on the machine, but even then Im not exactly positive
that cobalt never made a raq4 with a 300mhz cpu, or that the diagnostic dump
program isnt flawed in someway and reporting the wrong cpu.

The part that bothers me is not whether or not the 300mhz will handle the
sites that I put on the server, it probably will do just fine, the part that
bothers me is to be took for a ride in selling me that Im on a raq4 and put
me on a modified spoofed raq3.  It really makes my blood boil at this point.

Im still investigating and waiting for an official response from the
provider and now from cobalt as well.
