With a A500 You will need HPUX11i v1 (Its a PA-RISC box...), that costs quite a lot but I suppose someone can give you some CDs /DVD to install a basic configuration, It cant be worth much without OS...but its a nice little server (blade type) Does it have a DAT drive with it? If you are looking at SUN, a little ultra10 would be fine for you. Remember to look also for DAT drive installed ( backup/restore exercice...) About HP, in the worst case I will look and see if I can help...(but I have a A400 and sure its not the same processor in mine is serie 7XXX while I bet A500 is PA-8000 (64bit...))
