We have at least 10 FreeBSD boxes and keep buying more. Every time
we get a new one, in addition to getting the machine itself we
need to worry about making sure that it has a port on our remote
reboot and our shared console. This is getting messy, and tedious.
Looks like "Consolidated Servers" as reviewed in Lantimes'
http://www.lantimes.com/usetech/compare/pcconsol.html, could
do for our server situation what a Netapp did for our disk
situation. 

Anyone tried to use any of these boxes, or ones like them for
FreeBSD. Obviously these are going to be more expensive, but
the flexibility and the reliability might make it worthwhile for us.
