No problem so far after 4 months, other than having to upgrade the shaky drivers, but that was free. I just don't like used CPU because HD is a moving part, but heck mine has lasted in old HP for 6 years now.
i trade on all used equipment...except for memory upgrades and two 146GB scsi drives... i got about 18,000 worth of gear for under 7000... bought it all on ebay bit by bit... no problems what so ever... btw...these are ibm dual processor workstations with an ibm 3 year next day at home service warranty... all top line for incredible savings
Good job! I have several clients, associates and friends who have done the same type of thing. Last night I got really lucky, I got six 36gig scsi drives for less than $100. They are great additions to my latest coo. I got two 146gig drives for $75.
