Yes. Unlike the IT experts, the commercials use small words that a CIO 
can actually understand. :-P

OK, let me get this straight: USD  $10,079.00 for a *bare* system??

$91.00 for the POWER CORD?!

Are you mental?? For that money, I could buy three HP DL380s! :-P

Mind you, put 4 CT5401 blades in it, and we have USD  $44,795.00. That's 
a lot of CPU and GPU, right there... And still less than the price of my 
mum's house.

Er, yeah. My freakin *laptop* can do that while running Linux UNDER 
SOFTWARE EMULATION! :-P
