I guess we can agree to disagree. I find the IBM X3 technologies used in their higher end servers, better on a whole. I definitely prefer the IBM blades over HP and Dell.

Oh, and I've used both IBM Director and HP Insight. I have to say from an administration and user standpoint, I prefer the IBM Director.

What we can agree on is they *all* should be running some flavor of linux! :)

There is an facility in Cary, but I don't know if I'd call it a briefing center. I have been to briefings there, blade servers, etc. There is also a much bigger facility in the metro Atlanta area, they have benchmark labs etc there. My sales guy set it up.


For what it's worth, my take is still HP, IBM has good technology, but in some areas it's really poorly integrated/implemented. The software that the two vendors have for remote management, IBM's Director and HP's Insight, weren't even close. Insight was far superior when we compared a while ago. Of course this is just in the server space.

knew of an HP briefing center in the area?
