This reminded me... Not long ago I was looking at used sun servers. You can pick up refurbished sun enterprise systems for between $4,000 and $10,000 fairly easily. For instance an enterprise E3500 with 8 processors, 4gb ram, and 8 18gb fibre channel drives was only $5,000. I couldn't put together an equivalent intel system for the same price.
