All joking aside, I've worked on contracts where a squad of specialists from this list could have done a far better and more cost-effective job than the consultants actually involved. Don't know whether anyone recalls a message I mistakenly sent to the list two years ago meant for Webster that said "these consultants are so full of sh*t", but I've been on site recently with the same customer cleaning up the same problems I highlighted then. But at an increased daily rate :-)

Whether your environment is large or small, there are tons of variables that can affect decision making. A small investment in professional services can help you avoid unecessary investments in the future. FWIW, I would avoid a blade solution if at all possible. It doesn't sound like your environment is large enough to justify blades. Just my $.02. - Sean On Tue, Nov 6, 2012 at 7:28 AM, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: I have no experience with Virtualized anything. I have read VMware is better than Citrix.
