Damnit, this would be great for us.

Unfortunately, I'd have to convince somebody to buy it.

What are you going to put on it? And did you fill it with six blades?

Nice! I'm jealous. Enjoy.

I just got a Dual 2.8GHz Xeon server for work, and its a waste for what it does. I bought it for the software specs, and then found out that it will only be running a tiny web app internally.

The power is quite nice, though!

What is 6x RH server ?

Do you mean a 6 processor server running RedHat ?

This is a Blade server... so you pay $2500 for the Blade enclosure, then $3500 for each blade computer (with dual cpus, dual scsi drives, a gig of ram, etc) that goes into it up to a max of 6... so you have 6 full servers in one enclosure, in a single 3u space... and he's running Redhat Linux on each one. So 6x RH.
