Good post, and I'm definitely familiar with pushy hardware sales dudes.
Given all that though, my previous post still stands. The prices I'm quoted as part of the Startup Essentials program are lower than Dell's. I'm looking at a few web servers, a DB server, and a storage unit and it's coming in at 85% of the Dell cost. The servers seems a bit nicer too in the components (CPU speed, number of RAM slots, etc.)
- staunch 19y agoCheck Silicon Mechanics, Rackable.com, or just forward Dell your Sun quote and have them beat it if you want. For a small amount of gear though it doesn't really matter much. I'm certainly not saying Sun makes bad stuff either (they do overstate their differentiation though), just that they charge a premium like Apple does.
