I've bought a couple of HP 1U servers from savemyservers a couple of
years back. Decent prices. They'll reconfigure things however you
want. Don't forget to buy the rails (which are not so cheap).<br>

<div>That's a bitly link to an ebay listing for several
Dell 1U systems. They have the basics of everything to
get jumping on Linux from power management to
virtualization all for $213 (including shipping). These
are reliable, solid machines that are out of date for
current commercial use (DDR2 RAM is far more costly that
DDR3 per GB) but perfect for someone who wants
server-class gear at home to learn on.</div>

<div>I usually get supermicro but they all have odd quirks
that make them a pain. New ones are a great deal on that
price/power/pain curve. Dell is over priced when new.
IBM is stupidly over priced new (and used!).</div>
