Nowhere near as much as you'd think.
I was given the hard drives, as work has just started moving over to=20
72gig units.
I got the 4 Compaq Switches thrown in with a Ford Escort I bought=20
lol.

The only bits that really cost me anything were :
The two racks, one from netshop, the other from ebay.
The Proliant 6400R, which cost me =A3700 without cpus, memory or hard=20
drives. I got it shipped over from the USA via ebay.
Bought the memory from Critical for =A3600 (2gig), and the processors=20
again from ebay for a grand ( 4 x Xeon550 with 2mb cache)
TFT was another ebay special at =A3600
and it's taken me nearly TWO years to get the stuff together.

So all in all I guess it sets me at about =A33500, mind you insurued=20
for about 10times that.

Now I must look into purchasing that Proliant 8500R with 8 XEONS !!!=20
now that would be fun.
