I bought a Xserve G5 for $100 off of Craigslist. It was still in the

was going to dual-boot gentoo/Fedora/OSX Leopard. I bought 6 Xserve
G4's too, five parts machines and one machine i'm going to run Gentoo
on.
Deals are around, I'd look for a Xserve if you can find one (theyre
wide, but not tall and fit under a desk or endtable.
Judging by prices on ebay, you should sell that Xserve G5 in the UK
right now and make ~ $1500 in straight profit :-)
I just got an Apple G5 Tower 2 GHz dual core for a somewhat more
reasonable £160 inc tax and delivery. Not as nice as the Xserve, but
a fraction of the price ...
Thanks all,
Rich.
