And tell the list what you're doing with yours.  We already have several geeks 
at Rackspace playing with them and starting to do some cool stuff.

Play..  Share.. Learn.. :)

Tweeks
p.s. if you have not bought one yet.. they still have quite a few, but be sure 
to insist on opening it up to inspect the caps, as well as powering it up and 
playing with it on their test monitor there at AlGen.  These units are from 
1999 back when they had the world wide electrolytic cap problems, and several 
of the units either have blown caps, get very hot & smelly, or simply do not 
work at all.
