[Asterisk-Users] What is the best Dell Machine for Asterisk?

[Kerry Garrison]

I am looking at the 830 systems now. I have heard good reports from other
users and the price point for a loaded system is still dirt cheap. Any
comments on this particular model?

All recent Dell systems support APIC.  However, most kernels (at least from
RedHat, probably others) do not enable APIC on single processor machines.
If this is the case, try rebuilding the kernel to support APIC on
uniprocessor machines.  This should resolve any IRQ sharing problems.
