Quoting Mirosław Jaworski <m...@ikp.pl>: > We anxiously wait for further lock-ins.
I had a "slippery slope" rant in my last email, but I decided to remove it before sending... See you think a bit alike... The funny thing is, when we ran DEC and SUN stuff, all Dell ever told us was why we should switch to their "Industry Standard" hardware; how great it would be to use "Industry Standard" equipment because we could buy stuff off-the-shelve and not have to buy from a specific vendor; how using their "Industry Standard" computers would remove software incompatibilities and such... So much for Dell's Industry Standard hardware, huh? Wonder what their new sales pitch will be now? Maybe they can steal a line from the diaper commercial (yeah, think about it...)... Dell -- We're a big kid now... Anyway, again, I don't much care, I'll just buy anything new with the older PERC 6 cards for now. I know the bandwidth is better in the new PERC cards, but I can deal with the current speed... If/When Dell only offers lock-in PERC's, well, I'll figure out what to do then... -- Eric Rostetter The Department of Physics The University of Texas at Austin Go Longhorns! _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list Linux-PowerEdge@dell.com https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
