MMm reminds me of the 16 ( or was it 8 Pretty sure it's 16) processor server that's sitting in Darwin as a print server because some idiot in management thought computers worked like cars...

It's real Nih, just prohibitively expensive.

It's a server board, ment for high end servers. The Xeons are expensive CPUs aswell (Designed for servers).

Both that board and the CPUs it takes are meant to be purchased by those with deep pockets (eg. Corporations)

Sorry, low-end server. My mistake.

Forgot they had heavies in that range (I know about the incredibly massive systems, didn't really consider that there might be something between massive and small - my error).
