I just replaced an unstable AMD Phenom box with an Intel Pentium (64-bit, dual core, 3GHz) box. A fresh install of Debian Sid (sans Aptosid) is running happily on it. I tried simply booting the old machine's installed Aptosid on it, but apparently the jump from Phenom to 4th gen Haswell Intel was too much and it wouldn't work.

I miss my Audiophile :( but the built-in audio works just fine.
