My two servers for my mini-ISP business are similar quad PPro

There was something about those PPros that really honked.
I have been tempted to replace the Proliants with something
small and blade-ish that didn't suck so much electricity
and space, though. I've paid far more for juice than I
did for the systems.

My primary 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.
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.
