I don't know how I ended up on this page :
http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/deals?~ck=mn#!dlpgid=poweredge-tower-server-deals
Probably because I am always looking for deals.
That is what prompted my question about i3/i5/i7 vs Intel Xeon.
I was looking at the PowerEdge T110 II Tower Server which is selling for
$369.00. I was thinking it would be nice to upgrade this to 16GB and
add a couple HD's to it (that I can get off new egg) and configure as
RAID 1. Add a couple inexpensive video cards and potentially drive 4
flat screens. The CPU Intel Xeon E3-1230 v2 is smoken' hot!! 4 cores
and 8 threads. And the benchmark is plenty good.

This might only cost $1300 or $1400 for everything.
Or use it to build a very nice web server.
