That slickdeals.net site is in fact pretty slick. Nice find.

Very quiet boxes I might add, a big bonus for keeping them under the radar with the SO. John W.

You can get a beefy refurb box for quite a bit less than retail typically. This is what I did. Thanks, Brian Desmond [email protected] c - 312.731.3132 From: Fogarty, Richard R CTR USA USASOC [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, November 03, 2009 7:24 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Home Servers A bit ago, there was a recommendation for some prebuilt systems that people have used for a lower cost alternative to the big boys (Dell, IBM, HP) for some servers. I can't seem to recall that link. Anyone have that available? I'm looking to rebuild by home network so I don't need anything too overpowering and the windows domain has around 10 systems. I'd like to have ESXi running on it so I would like it to be a decent home server system. Suggestions?
