I've been asked to hunt for hardware that meets roughly these specs:

* preferably in a 1u, space for two autonomous machines with as many
  Ethernet interfaces as will physically fit the form factor

* Gigabit capable 

Anything else is really just a bonus, 'works with OpenBSD' is a must,
onboard graphics, sound etc is totally irellevant, humans will
interact physically with this only rarely if we do this right. The
location is in northern Europe, anybody who is not scared of shipping
there is fine with us.

Any war stories, notes or anecdotes (including don't do this, go for
$foo instead) welcome.  The amount of misleadingly tagged webshop
pages stuffed to the brim with inane animated and barely related ads
sort of got to me at one point.

All the best,
Peter
