OpenBSD has troubles recognizing the SCSI drives on some of these.

(The ones I have, for instance).  Also, Compaqs use a persnickety,

proprietary bios setup routine that resides on disk -- they were

too cheap to pop a 64K ROM into their high end machines.  Compaqs

of this type require tweaking in boot.conf to recognize all their

memory, too.
NetBSD, OTOH, and OpenBSD before 3.9, work.  Proliant 800.
Believe it or not, there are only two obvious P-Pro machines on

ebay (us) right now.  One is an overdrive (330MHz), the other a

diskless Dell "Demention" (sic ;-) at 180.  They want 96$+ship

for that one.  It must have considerable antique value.
