Short of it is, go to dell.com, large business segment, and spec out PowerEdge 2950 systems like you need (they need not be identical). Send me the "Print Summary" page of SKUs for each config, and I'll see if it fits in the budget, then we can negotiate features up/down depending on leftover money. For example, 2 x dual-core Xeon 5130 4MB CPUs, 8GB RAM, 3 146GB 10krpm SAS disks, PERC5/i controller, dual gigabit ethernet, DRAC5, rails, cables etc. is within the budget if you wanted 2 systems like that. :-) Thanks, Matt -- Matt Domsch Software Architect Dell Linux Solutions linux.dell.com & www.dell.com/linux Linux on Dell mailing lists @ http://lists.us.dell.com
