Sorry if this is a repeat to those on the list, Or sounds like an add for Intel. http://www.intel.com/design/servers/L440GX/prodspec.htm > > any chance you can mention a vendor you buy from and an exact > model of motherboard or PC ? Jason, I thought I did. it's an Intel l440gx motherboard. Price watch says it's $409 from these guys, who I know nothing about: http://www.simplexcom.com/ We buy systems from these folks, about $3600 with a single PIII 500, 512M Ram, and a 9Gig Seagate LVD drive. (This is a volume purchase price I'm told) http://www.reasoncomputer.com/Lancewood.htm > the price seems extremely good > for a Slot1/SCSI/dual board. Yeah like I said I think they kick ass, been around for over a year now too, and they just rereved the board for the 600MHZ + CPU's. >the comparable ASUS price is about $950. > > -jason FWIW Intel will is selling 2U servers based on this MB. http://channel.intel.com/isp/servers/lb440gx.htm Intel will soon have a new shorter version, we had the rep through with a near production server. 2U with 4 hotswap SCA drives. Looks very nice although they still have some case access issues to ironed out.It looks pretty much like the above but has a louvered black plastic front panel and will only be 24" deep I think this one is 28" or so.
