@zac1 decided I didn't have enough of his stuff yet, and sent me some 40x40x28 fans for a computer I'd bought from him, gratis! The dude's crazy, and he ships crazy fast. Better take advantage of him before he comes to his senses.

@zac1, thanks again for another speedy transaction!

Right, that's why I said "almost".

Forgot to mention, I picked up an ICX6450-48P for $125 + tax from an eBay seller in my area last week. It will serve as the nexus of a home network, with multiple PoE APs and IP cameras, once I get enough round tuits. I mostly wanted it for PoE, VLANs, and for the 10GbE to use with a storage...

Still a hell of a deal, I bought the motherboard alone a couple months ago at retail for about $770.

First-time poster, long-time lurker. I had a NAS running XigmaNAS in an old PC tower case, running on a SuperMicro C3758 motherboard. One day this spring, the main CPU just quit working. The IPMI was still responsive, but nothing I tried could get the main CPU to work again. And of course the...
