no they don´t ... I bought 3 PC´s of them about 2 years ago ... the only thing that is still working is one of the monitors ... everything else just died ... stay away !

look for some supermicro.com reseller ... those servers rock !!

since you are such a genius.. why not build one yourself...???? that way you'd have the best box possible for the datacenter you plan to host in...

Obviously an exception and not the rule. They didn't get to where they are by selling shitty computers.

Used both brands of 1/2U boxes no problems. *knock on wood*

Just bought 2 : one 1U and the other a 2U casing. Dual P3 x 1ghz, 1 gig ECC, scsi, etc...

Very cheap on EBAY !

take a look at www.webhostingtalk.com, or look at ebay - both places have plenty of ready to rock servers that you can buy for small $

some nice ones too

[directfiesta]

Stick with the rack formats if you are looking to do colo... Most of them only accepts 1U & 2U.

I've gotten good prices on machines that were screwdrivered together by http://online-spectrum.com

Same components I would have used if I was building it, everything neatly tied down and burnt in.
