It don't make no sense when you can run dual (or even quad) pIII's for so much less...I just saw on pricewatch dual pIII system boards running <100 bucks each, and processors at around the same price. Add that to a couple gig of SDRAM & a 250gig hard drive & what more do ya really need for a good web/file server??? I never go for cutting-edge, ever. Things just get obsolete too fast in this biz to justify the cost!

If you are co-hosting the boxes 10 1U would take up more space than 2 boxes depending on what Xeon servers you are looking at. Otherwise, is the forum very CPU intensive?
