[rescue] New Origin 3400 in Ottawa

[Lionel Peterson]

Very nice, it appears to have 6x 36 GB drives and 20 (5x four CPU modules) and
a butt-load of network interfaces.

If it wasn't in a foreign country and likely has serious power requirements,
it could be a tempting Purchase... then again, this is really just a big
server, nothing particularly special about this - is there?
