ok - but, who do you call for HW problem ? HP has all levels of warranties all depending on how much $$ you want to spend. What do you do if you buy and install Supermicro ????? HP also has 24x7 support center , again not for free, what do you do with Supermicro ??? I am really interested because I hear a lot of folks putting * on them but I never have worked on them while I have put in bunch of HPs really big boxes.. Thx for sharing your experience
