170 IBM Rack server

Not in Vancouver but this should be posted found via reddit. Already has been picked through but worth a call if your local.

That is NUTS. How is one person even able to obtain that many servers?

These servers will cost more in cooling and power than they're worth over the course of two months.

Exactly. I live in Vancouver and have seen this posted for months. I'm always curious how quickly they're going. The price point is certainly great for someone who wants to try playing around with servers, but I'm trying to get away from older hot and power hungry at this point.

That being said @TechIsCool gets a like from me for posting a deal local to me!

I keep a few DL360 G7's around to play (test) things on...

not really the best for 24/7 use but still functional.

keep a 1/2 rack of old gear just in case the furnace goes out in winter?
