I used to be the guy that was always buying up all of the old used servers on craigslist but finally decided to get smart and get a nice big one for all of my VMs. The power saved is worth it in hindsight.

Anyone looking for a server or multiple servers I would recommend going on eBay and looking at a Dell C6100. 4 nodes and just about as efficient as a normal 1950.
