Play box for HyperV

So want a play box for HyperV?  You can actually load up 16gigs on that Microserver.

These are great little boxes. I am hoping to enter my MS certifcation with the new 2012 exams, just waiting for training material to become available.

I recently purchased 2 x N40L's with 16GB of ram, 1TB HDD's, an extra add in NIC for my VM traffic and a gigabit switch, all for $877AUD.

I now have a quiet, low power Hyper-V home lab that I have started mucking around with (have done a few posts on my blog, although I am new to the blogging thing also, so that is a learning curve in itself!)
