Probably not much... I mean, a 300-400$ computer will be faster than that :o

C'mon guys. Someone here has to know about server values. I just need to know what this is worth so I can pass it on to my friend.

I will most likely just sell it here on LR, so if you have any clue as to the value, let me know.

And you can't compare apples to oranges. A server is not a PC and vice versa. We all know they have different purposes. If it were a PC, I could price it easily.

So, if you deal in servers and you have an idea on price, I would like to hear it. Thanks!
