I was referring to all the rack mount print servers (Port Masters by Lucent
Technologies), not the actual racks themselves.

It would be more for warehouse then a lab... (my guess)

storing them on a 1/2 pallet not a bad idea. The IBM 4500R server is a GOOD
server but best if we degrade it back to a single CPU system. With dual cpu's
when the 2nd cpu loads to capacity the VRM will fail and thus cause the server
to puke. a NEW VRM (Voltage Regulator Module) did NOT solve the problem so it's
an motherboard issue.
The Existing 2 Dells are RDRAM based and can go for all I care BUT We NEED
the Hard drives *** AND THE INSTALLED CONTROLLER *** out of those machines!
As for the racks, they need to be disassembled and kept. DO NOT give them
away...
