Make me a fair offer and I'll toss in free shipping and guarantee no components will be DOA.
I'll also toss in Windows 2000 Advanced Server, 1-8 processor version, legal CD. ($1,000+ value)

I pack real good, ask anyone I've shipped to before.

If no one on Free-DC wants this awesome setup, then please pass this info. on to anyone else that would be seriously interested.

Impressive box. And yes, yes he does pack damned well. If I had the cash and no bills to pay, I'd be over this in a shot.
