I'm sure they're nice boxes, but I like to be able to fix my own 
infrastructure in-house on my time/delay, so we stick with generic 
Intel-based boxes.

I think Cobalt's decision not to go with Intel is going to bite them as the 
prices of 500+ MHz celerons get under $100 in coming months.  The cost of 
ownership of Cobalts (upfront and ongoing) doesn't add up for me.

We're looking at these boxes:

as the best we've found for rolling our own 2U "cobalts".
