I bought a couple 1U servers from dell. Since none of my credit cards would go over a few thousand for a single purchase I called Dell up to ask if I could send them a check. I got transferred 12 times! I'm not kidding you, I was counting. Eventually, when I got to 13, I couldn't understand a word the guy was saying so I just hung up. During those transfers they asked if I was charging them to my companies account. I couldn't believe how easily they were going to allow me to charge a personal purchase to the place they were going to be delivered. Eventually I found out that their web interface allowed you to split a purchase over a few credit cards. Few years later they are still running with zero problems. Get them with DRAC, its great. Bottom line is, if you are buying from Dell, either you are a "Dude, I'm getting dell guy", or a company with an account. If you are just buying a few rackmount servers, dont fit a profile and can get serious hassles.
