www.coastlinemicro.com is the company we use. Great service great prices, great gear.  Some of the things that this company does is unbelievable. Not only do they do servers but PC's and laptops. Lets say one of your users drops his laptop and it shatters. Lets say this user is traveling also. They will send a replacement laptop to the users hotel anywhere in the USA by noon the next day. With directions on swapping the HD. We have been using them for years now.

Just post it.  I too used a whitebox for my last server, from www.utron.com.  No stupid !xxxxx.cfg files.  Not much support either though.

There are a lot better faster and cheaper servers around that don't have a name brand. We used to shop around until we found a dealer that did white boxes. These are genuine Intel Boxes that cost a hell of a lot less. My last server we got 2 weeks ago was a 4U box with quad Xeon  700's with an external DPT array holding 7 36GB harddrives and 4 Gigs of memory. It is a beast of a box that cost us around 16K.  I know for a fact I could get the same specs for the Compaq you ordered for around 6-7k easy. If anyone wants a contact please feel free to email me.

Sorry for the OT post, but I'd like hear the general consensus about CDW. Are they fairly priced? Adequate customer service? Prompt shipments? etc. etc.....

 

What's everyone's experiences with them? I've never purchased from CDW before but a recent quote on a new exchange server is the best I've seen yet.
