    I saw a better Quad Opteron server platform from a manufacturer in Taiwan, looks like a great server, you can visit http://www.genesysrack.com.tw for a look, I hope somebody can supply this chaassis in Sydney.

    Just received this server for a work project. Looks impressive and all, but when you realise that you can't just bolt it into a standard 4 poster rack, it makes things difficult.
    C'mon, Sun - it's a bloody rack! Who wants to but a special (and probably overpriced) "Sun" rack just to house this supposedly "affordable" server?
