Rack Mounted PCs for the Home User?

Posted by michael on from the more-power dept.

andrewa writes "Do any folks out there have recommendations on available gear for building a small, but extendable, rack-mounted system? As a developer of software for use in contact centers I want to put together a small development system that consists of at least three PCs to create a simulated environment to test my applications in. Why rack mounted? Well, I want to save space and only have the bare minimum systems (no need for multiple CD-ROMS, monitors, no sound-cards, just lots of memory and HD space). I also will add to this in the future, so don't want to limit myself to just a few pcs on the system. I've scouted around a bit, but didn't see too much. I'm in the UK at the moment, but will be moving to the U.S. in about 6 months, so power requirements (although I guess most equipment has switchable voltages) is a consideration."

    most women are little more than walking vaginas. Just waiting to be fucked.

    Most surveys (and my own experience) has indicates women are generally far more hornier then men (but also far more selective). Keep in mind a normal man can orgasm once or twice a day. A woman can orgasm 24/7, and many would like to.

    i wish your mom was too deep. She can't take all 12-inches of my johnson. And she really screams when I slam it into her cervix. Fortunately, I gag her first, so it's not too distracting.

    Sounds like you really bring in the chicks. Do you have a girlfriend? Does she let you touch her boobies?

    Saying Java is nice because it works on all OS's is like saying that anal sex is nice because it works on all genders.
