Submission + - The most expensive X86 server ever built !
imann writes: Dell have been introduced in its online configuration tool an option called "Multiquantity" for selecting several time the same item. On the European version of it, they didn't had implemented any control on the amount of items you can select.
This lead to strange situation where you can create servers with unrealistic configurations. This bug is kind of scary as he doesn't prevent you from creating stupid configurations like 9 disks instead of 8 supported. While pushing this bug to the extreme, you can have servers costing thousands of billons dollars (54 798 980 004 128€ in my case) !
To be honest and remove OS/browser bugs, I've been able to reproduce that on IE/Firefox Linux/Windows. This screenshots were done under Windows Vista (in kvm) + IE 8.
Here come some screenshots :
