Two "where can I find..." questions
1) A mate of mine with far too much money wants to get a Radeon 9700 Atlantis Pro Ultimate (you know, the Sapphire Tech job with passive cooling and no fan). Try as we might, neither of us can find a UK retailer flogging that beast of a card.
Does anyone know of one, or of a US retailer selling at a reasonable price (remember there'll be a big hit from import duty).

2) Is there an FTP "equivilant" of Apache? Ie. a free, open source, well maintained and secure FTP server?

Ta guys.

Forgot to mention:
The FTP server needs to run on win32 platform.
Cue much laughing about "secure" and "win32".

I've used GuildFTPd. It's not free the way Apache is free, but it's pretty good. There's serv-u, which is crap. This is what download.com gives me: http://download.com.com/3120-20-0.ht...search=+Go%21+

Sorry cookiemay no it's not (allready checked overclockers).

The one with the word "ultimate" tagged on the end simply has one of these pre-fitted on it.
The reason he wants that particular one is that:
a) He's too much of a worrier to fit it himself
b) If you buy the card with it on you get the card's warrenty still in tact AND the warrenty on the cooler, whereas if you fit it yourself kiss the warrenty on the card goodbye
Yes, it does indeed make for one mother of a big card (it covers the PCI slot below it for a start) but that's what he wants.

Still can't find it myself either.

It's a client, not a server :P

I just noticed it needs to run on win32 as well so scratch my suggestion.

Are you implying that IIS is free and open source?

I have XP Pro so IIS is an option but the last thing I want is every last script kiddie in the neighbourhood with system level access etc.

Plus I was pretty certain there would be better solutions out there.
