Those don't appear to be SM100 processors on there- they look like some 
other kind of Ross module, but not something I'm familiar with by sight. 
Could be worth it for those alone.

Otherwise, it's a big, loud, 220V power sucking beast. Bring a lot of 
guys. <grin>

My opinion? Unless you really want the big cabinet, don't pay more than 
$50.00-75.00, and only take the CPU card and whatever other cards it 
might have that are interesting, and then hold out for a 670 or 630 
case. You get the same functionality, but in a much friendlier form 
factor.

If you can afford the space, power requirements and noise, it is a fun 
box otherwise! I say this owning both a 630 and a 670. If you want more 
specifics on the 6xx series and it's pluses and minuses, search the list 
archive, or drop me a note.
