I'm just looking for as much redundancy as I can get. Got some darn good leads, 
taking notes and will work on those when I get the servers up in a week or two. 
I want to make sure that once this thing is running, the folks who are using it 
are going to believe that open source IS a good solution. Hard to convince some 
people until they see it.
I'm a great believer in showing corporate heads that there isn't only MS out 
there.

Yup, they are all the same, all XEON XPUs, just the count is different. The 
machines are all IBM so they will be similar in many ways.

Well, that's what I'm not sure about and is why I was asking if some folks are 
using such machines and if so, do they find them adequate for their purposes. 
Hearing others input, you sometimes realize that there is something you can do.
