Hi,

I Suppose it depends on where your homedirectories are. and if
you are doing
something disk intensive.

The X2200m2 with quad-core Opterons and SAS disks ( 2 ) are
good and cheap for
serviing desktops. But as you only get two 15K SAS drives in the
chassie
you cant have a workload with lots of disk I/O , You need to either
have NFS mounted homedirectories
or use the the 4140 or the 4150 where you can have 8 SAS
disks.

//Lars

All directorys are now on a E250 in a 3310 and will be moved to a E450 with internal drives once S10 u7 is out, I hope this will work for a 1-2 years more spendning the budget on the desktop for now.

So, the machine will only serve as a SunRay server with xVM running XP on a few instances.
