What kind of specs on those PE servers? Other than the usb stick for the OS, do you even need local storage? Hell you could probably get away with a pxe boot and forgo the usb stick too.
Be sure to post up when you get some gear in hand!

They are 2x hyper-threaded 2 core xeons each so 80 render threads 
6GB of ram each so 60GB of ram total
Do you know if they would be any good for folding?

Does Ray know about this yet? I think he'll like the premise of this being used to fold.
