Why is he not using a low-power Xeon? The 17 watt max TDP CPU is pretty amazing.

We've got a server design in house using commodity parts for a three-server cluster that's less than 60 watts per server. The whole thing (including AC/DC conversion overhead) is less than 2 amps at full draw.



These Xeons probably don't have a HD4000 graphics unit?


Ah, good point. Obviously servers don't need that. :)
