Bought a Dell PowerEdge SC440 before Christmas and love it, it has 64
bits + VT for hardware emulation. It kicks ass. Since you read French,

The start price was 150 euros ex VAT (as widely advertised on this list).

Now this is where the SC440 wouldn't help as Dell limited it to avoid
people from using it as a workstation. I do believe some people went
around it though.
