RE: [cobalt-users] Qube vs. Raq - newbie question

Don't forget where you intend to put it.  IF you'll be co-locating it, the
cost to host is usually SUBSTANTIALLY cheaper for a RaQ than a Qube because
of space requirements.  Also, the RaQ3 uses standard, inexpensive RAM, the
Qube2 uses non-standard RAM which is EXPENSIVE.  (I recently bought a new
RaQ4i rather than upgrade the memory on an old RaQ2/Qube2)
To add 128 to the RaQ3:  $54.99 (www.crucial.com)
To add 128 to the Qube2:  $237.59 (www.crucial.com)


You could run a dozen or so sites serving up static pages with 32MB of RAM
on either machine.  But if you choose to install php and mySQL to create
dynamic interaction, you'll be wanting more memory very quickly.
