2 of these. Starting bid, $870. Passmark score of 11,467. Stout by any measure. Compared to Dell's retail site where the equivalent goes for about $2,300, depending upon the size of the SSD in these units. If I were in the market for a new trading rig, I'd make a play on these. Not many customer reviews yet, but all so far have have it "5-Star". Tom's Hardware gives the T3600 solid marks. Value in this auction somewhere. http://www.ebay.com/itm/321160605067?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
