I can get the machine below for £3,340.00 ex vat. Its all fairly redundant.

Processors will be the slightly better harpertown CPU's though. I have
just got pricing for machines with 1600fsb, 800mhz DDRII, add about
200 quid for that.

It can be remote managed with IPMI. I imagine it will suck about 400W.

I have some very cheap colo available. Ill ask for a quote.
