All are AMD64. 
3 are : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4600+
3 are : 8 core FX8350 (new machines)

All will have the same use flags/kernels/

The peripherals will only slightly be different
bands of DVD. All video cards are ATI, so it should work?

Or at least set up one from each of the 2 classes and dd to the
other 2 drives? I'm game for  this approach.


curiously,
James
