Re: [edlug] second hand rack mounted server suggestions?

[<paul@xxx.xxx.xxx>]

With your budget I would probably be looking at either a Hp DL385 or a Dell PowerEdge 2850 although neither of these is pretty to look at. I had a smaller budget for mine but I ended up with a Rackable Systems Dual Opteron with 4 gig this runs a few vm's just fine although it is based on the opteron 250 which does not support AMD-V.

I just want something to tinker with and run a few VM appliances on, nothing particularly resource intensive and not at all mission critical. It wouldn't hurt if it looked good when bolted to a cheap IKEA table either.
