[Info-vax] Blade Servers in Stock - $979 each

[David Turner]

Dave
These are coming from HP-UX sites
A lot of users are migrating from HP-UX on integrity to X86-64 with Redhat
Seems to be a major trend. I guess it is an easy migration in most cases.
I am sure the fact that Redhat support is in the US and people have an 
American accent probably helps quite a few (especially us people down in 
the Southern US who don't do good wit dem ferners!)

Anyhow, I just happened to get a call from a company that had some 
servers donated and the price was WAY too good to pass up.

This deal on blades is better than most of HP Refurbished cost

Normally market is about $2000 for the blade server itself then about 
$1000 for the CPU. I am undercutting this to get the ball rolling in A 
Integrity sales, which are very slow right now for HPE and ourselves.
For some reason, DS10s are the flavour/flavor of the month
