[rescue] FS: Quad-Proc Opteron workstation (new sunhelp.org server drive!)

[Lionel Peterson]

Bill,

I went through the thread, and I have a few Q's:

1) Did you ever find a buyer? It sounds like you got some gifts that offset
(to some extent) the need to sell this box right now...

2) Do you have an actual weight for the system? The shipping estimate of $150
seems extremely high - FedEx Ground will pick-up the box at your end and
deliver it to my zip code for $61 if it is 75 pounds, $80 if it weighs 100
pounds...

You have an 8 core, 8 Gig RAM system that runs on less than 450 Watts? That
seems pretty good from where I'm sitting - is it the noise that pushes this
system out of the running?

I have no need for the system myself, but assuming you have the packaging from
when you bought the case, shipping it should be quite affordable...

That would bs a nice system to run a bunch of small VMs on, but I already have
a couple such systems.
