Really? I've always considered Xeon processors to be far superior to their
consumer counterparts.

And a 2 GHz Xeon system is hardly a POS, that would run a linux server quite
nicely with a few hard drives added to replace the meager 4 gig drive that
is currently in the system.

the only thing that's keeping me from ordering one is that I'm saving my
money for Dragon-Con I wouldn't mind having one of these on my bench at
home.

Sorry if me posting the link and the info for the machine is considered as
being spam , I definitely didn't intend it to be considered like that..
