[Noisebridge-discuss] Money for new Stallion (Pony) VM server

[Ronald Cotoni]

I would be more interested if we used a low voltage variant.   It would be
better in the long run for our costs.  Also I am in the market for a new 2u
motherboard myself.  I found a 159 supermicro board, an e1220 for 219 and
we could use the same ram/heatsink.
