I believe this is where we bought them from. http://www.swt.com/thin3.html . We have bought several workstations from there as well, (dual athlons) with zero problems. We have been using the workstations for over 1.5 years, and the 1u servers for just over a year with zero problems.
FWIW, we have installed Red Hat 7.3 on the 1u and it found all hardware without a problem. We have about 20 of the workstations spread out over eastern NC. <bashful> they have been running windows 2000K flawlessly as well </bashful>. We used these machines to replace dual xeon compaq scsi and the users have noticed no difference.
