We have two fully populated 1655MC blade chassis running Citrix. The
imaging facility doesn't really work, but other than that they are generally
fine. No problems with the teaming on the Broadcom NICs, but it did take
three Dell engineers to configure this in the first instance! The
integrated switches are actually stripped down Cisco, but our network guy
tells me most of the IOS features are missing.

a couple more things on the dells
our networks guy HATE the cheap no name brand switch on the back of the =
chassis
broadcoms will not team for ALB, dell have admitted this now
other than that, i'd get them again to replace my older hp lc2000r's

What's keeping you from getting more from your terminal servers? Did you
know, in most cases, CPU Utilization IS NOT the single biggest
constraint to scaling up?! Get this free white paper to understand the
real constraints & how to overcome them. SAVE MONEY by scaling-up rather
than buying more servers.
