Caption contest: the beer server

We're pretty sure this is one Sun box that really doesn't need any introduction. We hear Scott McNealy's even got one in his den.

Ryan: "I'm sorry, Dave, I'm going to have to cut you off."
Paul: "You're going to need quite a bit of Java to combat that hangover"
Peter: "I have one mission: To find Sarah Connor and get her totally wasted." or "Sun Microbrewsystems"
Marc: "So this is Sun's new liquid-cooled computer!"
Evan: "I don't get it- do we use roofies or a virus to steal it?"

Dell has one of these, too. Only problem is, they only support Milwaukee's Best.

Wow, those Admins have really been putting in the hours since that new system arrived.

[Rob @ Feb 10th 2006 5:43PM]

It's obviously fairly new--the two taps point to it being dual-core.

Unfortunatley for bob, the white collar, wine glasses and high tech server were not enough to disguise his blue collar beer drinking self.

[gillsans @ Feb 10th 2006 6:57PM]

Well, I thought it was a freezer and Clive said it was an air conditioner, but we couldn't figure out how the hell to hook it up and I sure as hell wasn't going to bring it back to the office, so I made this out of it.
