I have seen pictures of the giant rack proliant!~ We want one of those but
have one of the towers with 2 processors in it... also have the 11x17
dulpexing monster laser printer to display next to it..... looks
impressive.... but... want a rack unit too with the rack fully stuffed like
in the picture I saw!

The fastest one produced was 200MHz. They had

file server at the office is a Compaq Proliant 6000 with four of
the PPro/200 CPU's with 2MB cache each, and that thing just does
not give up. Although all my other servers are MUCH faster CPU-
wise, this box handles the Win2000 Advanced Server plus SFU plus
BackupExec very well.
My lowly single PPro 200Mhz server has been faithfully and dutifully
handling my email and dishing out web pages for at least 5 years now.
It's survived several slashdottings and has been one of the more reliable
systems I've ever owned. I'm getting ready to switch over to a new server
(dual PII Xeon 450) which should make things run a lot faster but I'm
planning to keep this one around in some role.
