The same is true of SGI Octanes
Nice. Trouble is now I want one!!
I actually bought it because I like the case . but yes you are right. I'm not so much into the likes of Ultra 5s or 10s anymore and wanted this to be a useable day to day computer with linux and some large HDDs in it.stephen_usher wrote: ↑Fri Oct 01, 2021 1:50 pm It's only an Ultra 24... Basically an MSI motherboard in a Bechtalsheim styled case.
Yeah they still go for a pretty penny Steve, so better get saving
They are a nice specc'ed computer but at least 5 or 6 times what I paid for this one.stephen_usher wrote: ↑Fri Oct 01, 2021 2:38 pm If you can find one, the Ultra 40 is the best x64 machine, a true Bechtalsheim design. Managed airflow with a transparent inner case side inside so that you can show off the goodies but keep the airflow good. Mechanical design reminiscent of the best of Apple's.
Ouch, that's ridiculous. There's some much better Ultras on ebay for way less than that.stephen_usher wrote: ↑Fri Oct 01, 2021 9:29 pm Some "person" is trying to flog an Ultra 24 for £900 on eBay. They were nowhere near that much when new.
