Umm, this is not a machine, it's a motherboard and CPU w/fan.  Also, as
noted in my initial post, the CPU is believed to have a hardware
problem.  Specifically, it tended to encounter thermal shutdowns, which
is why we don't use it in our news server any more.  This happened in a
well air-conditioned, raised-floor computer room in a rack over an open
floor tile, so it's likely not an environmental problem.  The
motherboard is believed good, the CPU is believed flaky.

Still in all, it's a fairly decent item which I was sort of tempted to
keep, but since I have no immediate use for it, I asked that it be
donated to TLUG instead.
