Hehehe.  Anyone pay attention to the WebVan auction at DoveBid earlier this
week?  They must have auctioned a couple hundred of these servers for maybe
1/5 of original cost, plus a couple hundred larger and smaller Compaq
servers.  That was nothing compared to the dozens of megabuck Sun servers
and storage arrays that went for peanuts.  You're going to see a LOT of this
stuff on eBAy in the near future.
