    New Computer Room?

    I might have just found my new computer room for this coming summer.

    The last one they sold went for $275.00

    The best news is that it can be delivered to you by air-drop by a C-130 (damn I love those things)

    Please post pictures :P

    The great news is that you will be MOBIL's #1 diesel customer in the district.
    ...think corporate box at the 2013 State finals.
    Oh Yeah.

    On the other hand, you and your neighbors will have 3-phase power from the built-in diesel generator in times of crisis
    wow. You can run an industrial metal lathe from that beast! Or a small office block.

    I figure I can hook it up to pull from the house and when the power goes I'll use the generators for the house. No worries during the next ice storm out here in the sticks.

    bmmr. I hate last minute bids.
    The price is slightly high though.
    You can get 81 of them for about $921 ea. - but it's a lot of 81 for $74K

    Not good if you only want one.
    No worries.
    I think that changes in foreign policy dictate that quite a few more of them are about to come onto the market so availability will go up and the price will come down.

    I don't think I added this link before IIRC
    Dell mini-data center air-drop for $220K+
