25 BTC!

I can get 36 M/hash out of it too :)

25BTC seems a bit low. But if you are serious we can talk off list.
I am serious, but this is all I can offer.  I know it's a lowball compared to what it is worth, but wanted to throw it out there in case you were desperate to rid yourself of it.  ;)

How can you be poor with your minecraft server?
I am proud to say that it was built ENTIRELY with donations from the players in the excellent community I have over there.  I started with an Athlon 3000+ and 512MB of ram that I already had laying around in 2010, and we've been able to upgrade a couple times, ending up with an i7, 24GB of ram, 3 SSDs, and some professional-level networking hardware.  I don't use any donation money for myself though - only for upkeep and upgrade of the server.

The cheapest I see these online is about ~$1500.00 and most of them are using on board graphic instead of the Quadro that this has (and use the 2820 instead of the 2860QM) and I have more ram...

Good news for everyone.... My girlfriend dumped me... why is this good (for you not me)? I am getting kicked out or our shared apartment... so I really need to get this bad boy sold so I have $$$ to put a deposit on my new place.

Well I had hoped at the start to get ~1600 for it...

someone told me he found a refurb for ~$850 (still waiting for link) ...

When i ebay it (8560w i7 Quadra 1000m) http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=8560w+i7&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313&_nkw=8560w+i7+Quadra+1000m&_sacat=0

I get a average price of ~1500..

and I am throwing in a brand new/bought it about 3 months back Monitor (LA2006x retail ~160) even ignoring the monitor its a decent deal.

Its BTC, its going to raise and fall, for a member of the community I'd take 40BTC with an escrow and Ill cover next day air out of my pocket, I'll add in the docking station that came with it, and the laptop bag I carry it in.

I need to cash my BTC out to my bank account and by March 15th have a total of ~3600 to cover First-Last ($1600/mo + $400 security... damn you New York) and security deposit. (so its sell this or cancel my BFL orders)
