Funny you say that. A backup system is "down" and I'm working on it. Fruity
broadcom junk, Intel all the way.

If Johny's Dell had a broadcom 5708, it is "known" by me to be entirely
unreliable, causing panic and reboots. Oerhaps disabling the onboard NIC and
using an Intel will yield better results.

While its not all about the hardware, the most problematic issues with linux
are more pointedly the NIC (these days).

I have never had any issues with HP servers except for the occasional
failed hard drive and one fan needing replaced.

I have a DL-360 G5 w/8 cores and 16GB RAM (most of that power is for
when we do the full ~700 phone deployment)
Backing that up is a DL-140 G3 w/4 cores and 8GB RAM running the HA proxy
I'll be installing another HA proxy at a remote site for ~200 extensions
that's an ML-150 G5 w/4 cores and 2GB RAM

All have aftermarket Intel NIC's (I don't trust Broadcom in Linux which
is what's built onboard on most of the HP servers)

Some might say that's overkill but I say it's just preparation for
expansion/upgrades (like DimDim).
