You can still see the old ones (for now) and see that they removed HDD's, dropped the number of IP addresses you get & jacked up prices quite heavily.

OLD - http://www.server.lu/dedicated-overview
NEW - http://www.server.lu/dedicated-overviewamd

DS2000 is now AS2000 and cost 10eu more, same hdd but 1 less IP, same RAM
DS4000 is now AS4000 and cost 10eu more, 750gb hdd instead of 2x 320gb, 1IP instead of 4, same RAM

DS10000 looks to now be an AS8000 though which is 10eu cheaper than it was before. Still a quad core 8gb ram 2x1TB drives but again less IPv4 addresses.

How does less ipv4 addresses affects you as a reseller, I'm curious. Btw I like their new processors, new Phenoms which are far more powerful than the old 64 x2 ones.

When you sell VPS you need 1 IP per domain + 1 to run the server, so a 4 VPS box has 5 IPs :) We have a pretty big surplus now though from shared boxes and working out IPv6 so it isn't going to matter much to us.

CPU isn't the problem/bottleneck either, it's the HDD's that slow things down and now you only get 1 HDD on most boxes instead of 2 to balance the load, so expect shared boxes to start running slower if you're on a 1x750gb box with 4-5 others.
