Hi,
 
We are about to purchase a server dedicated to running UrbanSim 4.  I just thought I would ask if anyone had any advice on what sort of a system I should be looking for.  Namely should I invest in faster disk, cpu or ram.  Obviously all 3 would be nice but I do have a budget to stick to.  I was thinking the 64 bit Opteron Chips running Linux was a good idea for pure number crunching capability?  Any suggestions or tips are most welcome.
 
Regards,
