    Buy a Dell Poweredge R730, way more horsepower than you need but should last you a long time. It will need a GPU but that can easily be added. Run VMware ESXi (Now called vSphere Hypervisor) and throw your VM's on with it. Don't forget rack rails if you are rack mounting it.

    Screw you university studio people!! *Shakes Fist* My studio is for a High School so pretty similar setup. What are you guys using to air onto cable tv? We are using a ghetto setup with an old Tricaster that somehow now has a virus on it so whenever we pull out the flash drive we get "Malware Detected"

    Step 1) Delete Mac
    Step 2) Get a nice windows workstation with cuda cards and xeons
    Step 3). Now you can worry about the server
     
    lol, We are using a dell poweredge r720 which we found in the IT / AV throw-away closet dispite the fact its around $12,000. It used to be running the web-blocking before we switched to a new system. Figured its good enough to throw in a rack and use to its limits... Its nice to have a centeral hub for storing all your files and being able to have people hand you graphics you need for editing without doing it yourself. Would enjoy getting the server rendering figured out but I feel I need to talk directly to Linus on that one...
