Dear Amber Users,
We are building a workstation using two Opteron
64-bit
242 processors, but we are not sure about the
operating system to be installed.
So any suggestions on the kind of operating system to
install so as to make full use of the 64-bit computing
for Amber and other similar programs.Portability of
all these programs on this architecture is another
issue we are considering.
Thanks In Advance
Regards
Sachin Patil
