I ordered the standard build for 188 also with dual core e2160 cpu but on the order confirmation it looks like i will be receiving mine with the xeon 3040.....sweeet!
It looks like the cost of the machine on my acknowledgement was 106 ex vat and delivery charge 49 but on the order confirmation the price of the machine is 124 with 31 euros for delivery charge.
I wonder if they have run out of e2160s? Anyhoooooooow its a great bargain,many thanks to the OP and for the EPP

Sweet!, thanks!, just ordered one myself
They use these in my place for training and they are totally quiet, will be perfect as a fileserve for my home network as well as one to run virtual machines for studies (am beefing up with an additional 2gb ram from crucial ).
Very nice bargain, thanks OP!Have a weather station?, why not join the Ireland Weather Network - http://irelandweather.eu/

just ordered for €188
Might be too late, will see.
I have a primergy econel as my media centre right now, this might be a little more quiet.. or i will give it to someone for christmas, not sure yet.... Sweet deal.
Its funny, i sent the link to work as we sell dell servers to our customers. Did not hear anyone say wow thats a great deal... ordered 5 and will resell with 400% markup
thats what i would have expected. 0 -

orders blatantly for business's on the epp site will not be honored. I doubt any of them will be sold for 188 euro as they cant be discounted to that price because they are already discounted by loads.
i think that a price close to that will be honoured but im not 100% sure yet. they maybe just sold at the price on the small business website.
The EPP site is primarily for consumer product, the fact that these are business units would mean that they arent 100% eligible for the EPP program but i think in this instance they will be honoured , but i cant be 100% sure on that .0 -

i wouldnt count on it (shipping by the 14th i mean) the orders havent been placed yet :P i would say they will be placed on monday, and i wouldnt say they will stay at the price of 188 per unit.
Well, I have received my order confirmation and the price is as stated, I reckon the 1000 units will be gone very quickly though.
I too got the upgrade to the Xeon 3040, I know very little about this processor, how does it compare to the standard dual core 2160 for running standard applications, etc.?
Not decided what I will do with this machine yet, file server for sure, I might put a half-decent passively-cooled graphics card in it and set it up as a media centre for the living room if it is quiet. Apparently the power supply is 260W but is capable of a good bit more if required. Great deal though. 0 -

I ordered one too, excellent deal!
Apparently there are only 1000 available so I wouldn't be surprised if I left it too late to place my order.
Anyway mine has a Pentium Dual-Core E2160 1.8GHz, so I wasn’t luck enough to get a free Xeon upgrade but I did get a SAS RAID controller thrown in for no extra cost.0 -

was it an online confirmation or one with an order number ?
it really depends a promo sku could have been pulled in so they could be ordered.0 -

Tut, tut! Shameless profiteering is against the spirit of "Bargain alerts"....Darkener wrote:i wouldnt say they will stay at the price of 188 per unit.
I'm not aware of Dell reneging on an order before, (even the good old deleted €32 mice!) although they may increase the price for new orders. Back in September you could buy a CPU + keyboard + mouse with operating system, MS Works etc. for €190 all in and in October I got a CPU with a similar spec to this server for €227 delivered.Darkener wrote:i wouldnt count on it (shipping by the 14th i mean) the orders havent been placed yet :P i would say they will be placed on monday.
I fly out in the evening of the 26th. sure as long as Interlink can deliver by lunchtime that day, I should have time to install XP and a video card! invest4deepvalue.com
