And they come with those nice iLO cards (no, haven't configured them under Fbsd, completelly firmware based).

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 FreeBSD runs quite well on the HP DLxxx models, only annoying quirk is that if you set the OS Type in the BIOS to Other (since there's no BSD options) it won't display a lot of the features to the OS (such as SMP).
