$300/mo/20U probably doesn't include bandwidth, at least I'd be surprised if it did. Don't forget that at least 1 of those U's would need to be used for a GE Switch.
It's worth repeating this number is based on rumor, speculation _and_ hearsay. Still, I could live with $40/U/mo if it included some reasonable amount of transfer. Maybe Bill Stearns' traffic will bump us into the next bulk category and the rest of our transfer will get lost in the noise.
We'd probably want to fund a terminal server/remote power unit to share for decent non-driving management. I have a Zyplex with lots of serial ports but it only speaks telnet, so there would be need for a pokey ssh box in front of it, which might not be worth another U.
Would we need a switch? That's a U. I think KVM is probably overkill. -Bill ----- Bill McGonigle, Owner Work: 603.448.4440 BFC Computing, LLC Home: 603.448.1668 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cell: 603.252.2606 http://www.bfccomputing.com/ Page: 603.442.1833 Blog: http://blog.bfccomputing.com/ VCard: http://bfccomputing.com/vcard/bill.vcf _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
