Hi all,

They're clearing out computer junk at work, and I have a pair of ~7 year 
old servers as above that are destined for the skip. They're 3u 19" rack 
servers, and weigh in excess of 32KG - built like the proverbial brick 
**it house.

4 x 2 core intel xeon cpu's at 3GHz
36GB DDR II ram (yes, thirty six)
3 or 4 72GB SAS hotswap disks
dual power supplies
some extra nics and fibre hba's
raid controller

* noisier than your vacuum cleaner
* doubles as weight-lifting kit!
* more metal than the wolves slade rooms

working condition AFAIK (planning to spin up memtest86)

there will probably be more off the junk pile this coming week.

regards,
-Andy DJ
