Got 6 of them shipped for more than i paid for the machines. Anyway, I'm putting gentoo on these bad boys now. Any idea how/what I should do to get the CPU lights working ("blinkenlights" from the BeBox days)? #2 Mon, 8 Aug 2011 - 03:56 68kMLA No clue on the lights, but congrats! How did you swing that deal? #3 Mon, 8 Aug 2011 - 17:41 68kMLA Pretty cool, where are you going to put them and what are you going to do with them? #4 Tue, 9 Aug 2011 - 21:03 68kMLA That is cool. It's sort of like MDDs in rack mount cases. Do any of them have the dual E-net feature? #5 Fri, 9 Sep 2011 - 06:10 68kMLA All 6 of them do. I put gentoo on one of them, and it was surprisingly easy to setup and configure.
