Unless I'm really confused, a trivial google search shows more
than one company selling 1U linux machines for just over half the
cheapest roughly equivelent 1U I could find clicking around on dell's
website for two minutes. There was a viable looking AMD based dell
option that was $100 cheaper, but all of the gray box vendors I found
w/o looking hard were selling celeryon systems, so I ignored that one.
Having recently bought a desktop AMD system from a graybox vendor who
was also offering celeryons, I'd expect the price drop for going AMD
in a 1U to be comparable.
