A "Barter" Proposition

I have a 1U Dual 2.4 GHz Xeon server that has been sitting dormant for a while. I got it in exchange for some Classic ASP work a while back, and it retailed for $2K at the time. It's about a year old, and it's in excellent condition. The only thing wrong with it is the cd tray's face is missing. It popped off a couple months ago. I'd sell it on eBay but I don't think I'll get anything decent for it. I wouldn't mind keeping it because it's a hefty machine that would be useful later, but is there anyone out there that has a use for it with something to trade? I'd be interested in entertaining offers.

UPDATE: Just so that I'm clear, I'm looking to trade a 1U rackmount server for a laptop or Tablet PC or something. Make me a serious offer and we'll discuss.

I will trade you everything I have in my pocket. Yes, it's a little like "Let's Make a Deal", but think of what could be behind Pocket #1. It could be a handful of weapons-grade plutonium, which you could supposedly make a killing on in the black market.

Or, on the down side, it could be a donkey.

It's up to you. Deal?

When I said "I'd be interested in entertaining offers", I really didn't mean offers that were "ha ha" funny. Good one though ;).

You might want to try a trade website.
I know there are a few of these in the Netherlands I can imagine that America should have a couple of these.

How about 2 PDA's, one still new in the box. 1 is a dell Axim, slightly used, the other is the one MS was giving away when you ordered VS.Net w/ universal (VS.Net was opened right away :), but the PDA has remained in a cardboard box on my desk).
