I'm doing something a little silly crazy and probably won't get it all to work (but I think I will) I'm building a Media Box/HTTPC that will have a Windows Home Server running in a virtual machine as well as the odd Linux box and virtual desktop virtualized....

I got the GIGABYTE GA-MA78GM-S2H with 780G Chipset http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128090

4GB GSkill

2.3Ghz Dual Core AMD BE-2400 45watt processor http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819103215

Zalman Cooler http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835118035

All wrapped in a Piano Black Thermaltake Lanbox: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811133045

Currently running eval Win2K8 HyperV with an AD Win2K Exchange 08 Win2K8, Suse Linux 10, and Ubuntu desktop in virtual machines (last 2 V2V from VMware virtual machines)
