Server Hardware?
My company decided to partner with IBM, does anyone still buy IBM servers? Years in this industry and everything has been Compaq/HP and Dell, don't think I have even seen an IBM server in real life.
What server hardware do you work with?

My current job is the first time I've seen anyone use Dell servers. -
