Thanks all for your help -- the forum has been a tremendous source of knowledge for me for some time. I have an early '08 2.8 Mac Pro, 8800GT, 4GB Ram (2 from OWC), and have had basically no problems with the machine. I think I had my first kernel panic today (although never having had one, i'm not entirely sure). Attached is the Apple-generated report. If anyone has any insight, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks again!
