In deed they are a class server, I would like to keep it / use it but I
live in a smalish flat and think if some one will make use of it they are
welcome to. I dont have the hart to skip it.

I also have enough disks to fill it and the D1000 array I have too.
and _one of two_ Fiber and Quad port ethernet cards for it too.
Its got the 3rd PSU installed (even though it was designed with only one
power input!)
I also have a few extra bundles of RAM round.

$work still has a few critical systems running on E450's.

DOH now I want to keep it again, Its a prowd part of my Sun museum.
