I've bought myself a desktop with an AMD Quad Core X4 640 with 2GB DD3 RAM and 500GB HDD for £155.
That sounds like a good buy - is it branded?

Steve - ummm, a workstation isn't a server... ;)

Oops, quite right, Saab, I mis-read the seller's specs (below). :O
Two Xeon processors:
Xeon processors are designed for multitasking
As a result, they're usually used only in large company servers.
This computer even has two processors installed, the PC appears as having FOUR
processors under Windows, i.e. a total of massive 4 x 3.2GHz processing power!
