Honestly, I can't think of a single reason why you would do
this. I bought a Qube for the GUI and the admin simplicity, but
as pure hardware it's expensive.

Build yourself a server, or get one from SAG, Dell, or IBM, put
RedHat Linux on it, and you'll have more expandability, more
power, more of everything, including the *option* to install
any darn OS on it you want plus get support and/or replacement
parts anywhere you wish... and do this for less money.
