1 x 40GB IDE UATA HDD (7200 RPM)
2 x 10/100 NIC's (1 integrated and 1 Intel EEPRO 10/100)

$835

Wow - that is really good, especially for a VA Linux system. I've never used one, but I've heard loads of good stuff about them.

What makes that a REAL good deal is its in a 2U Case. I wish I could find cheap 2U Cases somewhere. :cool:

afaik its because of their sales, the boxes are limited and once they are out of stock thats the end of the offer, thats what ive heared anyways based on other posts about it on this board

I think that the 1150 is actually in a 1u case.
