open systems support? is where we got a fairly flash server for work
from, its acer based and they are acer agents which is ok as they get
paid to fix any bugs, not that we have really had any

i believe someone on this list may work for them?

 - its smp[able]
 - has a nice juicy mylex 3 channel hw raid setup
 - has support agreement
 - has the option for redundant pwr supplies 
 - ours also has a 5 disk hot swap setup

I can dig up a contact name and address if you like, on a whole apart
from being redhat sympathists they are pretty good
