Re: [TCLUG:21429] Server recommendations

A Sun box running Solaris (with that kind of power) will cost
me much more than what I can afford.  That box is only $3500,
which will of course go down over a couple of months.

Don't tell me that I can get a Sun E250, with that kind of disk
and memory for $3500.  :P

The reason why I'm going with that machine is that I want both
expandability (if I need it), plus reliablitity.  If the site gets big,
I don't want to be down for 3 days because of a hardware failure.  :(

BTW, /. has I believe, 6 boxes (that was one year ago), with
a load balancer.  Certainly a lot more than I have.  :P
