A few days ago, i got an email from Elara telling me they had some HP Proliant servers quite cheap. How Cheap? ML110, which is a dual core Xeon, 1Gb ram, 250Gb SATA HDD and onboard RAID for 160EUR! they also have the ML115, an Dual core Opteron box, 512mb ram, and 160Gb hdd for 150EUR… neadless to day, i bought me the ML110. you can check out more photos at the flickr group below…

I was trying to get it to boot off the internal network, but building Windows Install Images using WAIK got me confused, so i just burned the DVD and installed it normally. So far, i have also upgraded the HDD (got a 500Gb for it, bring it to 750gb total) and i also ordered 4Gb more memory, to bring it to 5. it should be a nice Hyper-V host once the memory arrives… :)
