Still building all the VM's and putting stuff together but this stuff is awesome. You could take a sledgehammer to 3 of the 8 nodes and I wouldn't even see a performance difference.
I'm trying to get out of finance and more into IT but the other nice thing about this is that I can run a local thin-client machine at home with 2x monitors and a small, quiet Q9650 at work with a quad card.
I don't even run operating systems on my local hardware - just the firmware to remote into the servers.
Desktop experience is awesome, youtube, etc. and sound is awesome, streaming audio & video is awesome... mind you its over a 150/50 FiOS line
