1. Recouping Costs

1.1. Selling Peer1 Hardware

1.1.1. Informal eBay check

ClintonEbadi did an extremely cursory search for completed listings on eBay for the following terms and found the general resale prices of the stock versions of our hardware.

• Dell PowerEdge 2850 2.8GHz: $250-$500

• Sun Fire v20z: $450 but

  • No results for 1.16GHz or 242 (Opteron model #) -- these were all for 2.4GHz+ machines
  • Made up number: $200-$300
• IBM xSeries 335: $200
  • We did add very expensive drives and have lightly used them -- they may be worth more than the system itself

• StarTech IP KVM: $300 (for an SV1107 -- we have an SV1110... but this looks like the rackable version of ours)

• Belkin OmniView Pro 8 Port: $65-$100

So, maybe $900-$1200 if we are lucky.
