[ale] An FYI for SYS/Network Admins (spawned by new linux box thread)

[sangell at nan.net]

Just a little info I thought I would pass along. We have (my company that
is) been buying systems for the last several months from compaqs factory
outlet and have been thouroghly pleased with the merchandise we have
recieved. I have loaded Redhat 6.2/7.1/7.2 on numerous stations with GREAT
results along with NT and 2000 on a few as well and the prices are supurb!
An example of what is there currently Proliant DL320 1U rack mount server
PIII 800 with 128 ram for $699. Also, and this is the better part that a
lot of people do not know about, if you have a Compaq rep, he/she can get a
FULL list of all items from compaq. The items on the web are only a small
sample of everything they have. The full list is huge and changes often! If
you don't have a rep you might want to find one. We use Entree BTG located
in Norcross, however; they have a bit higher markup than some. There may be
a way to get the full list directly from compaq. I have not had time to
research that as of yet.

If you already knew about this I appologize if not hope it helps you in the
future.
