We've had HP servers over the years, but I'm okay with changing based on the consultant's relationship with his supplier.
I am a little nervous about VMware, mainly because I've had no experience with this technology. I believe I understand a benefit is the ability to have only physical box, but several servers running separately on that box. Upside there is you could "re-boot" one of the VMware servers, and not affect the others. James E Harvey Corresponding Officer/M.I.S.
