Yeah. Mark and I had this conversation on the Train this morning. Dell
is their vendor. If you don't buy Dell at his place they take you out
back and beat you with a bed pan :-0 =20
Obviously there are a bunch of great hardware solutions available. But
for his small environment these dogs will work ok.

If using the Dells is not set in stone, take a look at the IBM x345. =

Dual Xeon 2ghz procs, up to 8GB DDR RAM, Dual 10/100/1000 Nics, and dual

SCSI adapters. I have one on the way to be a SQL server but it would =

make a great terminal server.

Well,
Since you currently have some MF boxes running these apps I would look
at them to see how they are doing on Proc and memory. Gives you a good
starting point.=3D3D20
I like duals for everything, unless I have tons (in the thousands of
users) then MAYBE quads or Blades (more for cable and OS mgmt than
anything else)
With a Dual I go 2 Gig of RAM. If you want to start with a GIG that is
fine but configure your memory so you still have slots available. So if
you have 4 slots and get a gig don't buy 4 256 modules. Then you have to
replace them all. Get 2 512's
For drives. Go with 18 gig scsi's, you can go bigger if there isn't much
of a price different.
Tear it up bro.

Hello
I just had a nice talk with the director of IT here. I mentioned (thanks
Ron) to him the Dell 1650 series server, he jumped on it :-) Now he
wants me to spec it out and recommend how many servers to buy at first.
So my question(s) is this...
Recommend amount of memory? 1G or more?
Processor type? Looks like I can get PIII 1.8MHz (TWO per box)
I will be running OfficeXP, Meditech, Acrobat Reader. Looking a getting
5 Dell 1650's for now.
^^^ got Linux ^^^
