Subject: AMBER: Hardware recommendations please

Hi folks,

We're brand new to Amber, some hardware advice would be much appreciated.
We plan to install to a desktop PC, probably running some variety of
Linux. We need to figure out what make/model, how much RAM, how much
diskspace, whether we need RAID, multiple CPUs etc. Are some Linux distros
more suitable than others? Should we invest in a high-end graphics board?

TIA,
