Nice small servers, do you mean to have the 3.4 Ghz and 3.6Ghz systems the same price?
Full Systems:
1x BNIB Supermicro x10slm+-ln4f, 32GB (4x8GB) Samsung unbuffered, ECC RAM, E3-1240V3 with stock Intel cooler, LianLi V-351B - Asking $635
1x BNIB Supermicro x10slm+-ln4f, 32GB (4x8GB) Samsung...

2 x Xeon E5606 2.13Ghz Quad Core

Myself I am running Qubes with Xen over 17 VMs for isolation by task.
Separate Shopping, Banking, Email, separate website categories, wordpress, isolated network and firewall, eclipse, gpg, and disposable VMs.

What do your deployments look like? 3 Identical servers with dual cpu, 64GB RAM, running windows servers...

What were the key features you needed from vSphere Enterprise Plus? Could you sketch out a broad picture of your setup? how many VMs and in general their types?
What does an outline of common VMware vSphere deployments with software and licenses look like for small businesses? Small business environments around 2-3 Servers and also outlining VMs they run. I can't picture it well. Here was the only really quick note i found on planning a deployment...
