Really too bad, since it's a sweet server setup. Manufacturer Response:Dear Valued Customer,We are sorry for this inconvenience. Please contact our Technical Support Department at http://vip.asus.com/eservice/techserv.aspx so that we may get more details about your system configuration and assist you in resolving these issues you are experiencing. Best Regards, from Newegg.com Pros: Looks nice. Cons: Unit I received was built in 2007(!), and contains an out-of-rev motherboard. ASUS website indicates minimum MB rev of 1.05G required for support of Shanghai Opterons. Unit I received contains 1.04G. from Newegg.com Pros: Looks nice.

But now I understand why they have a lot of these available "open box". Really too bad, since it's a sweet server setup. Manufacturer Response:Dear Valued Customer,We are sorry for this inconvenience. from Newegg.com Pros: Wow, nice unit. Asus did a nice job with this server. Well constructed, modern case, easy layout, all parts needed to build, worked correctly first time. from Newegg.com
