Frog, have you checked out eBay? I've found dozens of tier-1 servers out
there for next to nothing. Now you may have to add the memory and hard
drives yourself but if you only spend $150 for a dual-proc box then you
should have something left over (some have them, some don't). I don't know
about a 4-proc box though. To get a reasonably modern server in a 4-way
config for cheap is going to be a rare find I think. It may be much more
feasible to get two of the 2-way boxes instead.

Subject: OT: Cheap hardware for Dynamips

Hi,
I am running dynamips on 2gigs cpu/1gig ram but can not run more than 6
instances.

Just wondering if anyone can suggest a cheap hardware (PC/Server) with 4 CPU
and 3-4 gigs RAM. I believe using this type of high configuration, I would
be able to run more then 15 instances.

Froggie..
