Compaq makes some good servers.

Starbox also makes some good ones, as also dell does.

Im just wondering if anyone has used them.


Great answer though
:idea:

I wouldnt say compaq makes GREAT boxes, in our 8 years experience, weve had enough problems with compaq servers as well as desktops to know their not GREAT but for their price their ALRIGHT.

YOur best bet out of those 3 would be dell. I dont have any experience with starbox, but I believe I read a review on them and they were supposed to be pretty good servers.

I beg to differ on the compaq servers, sure it's easy to get one of the bad ones, but they replace it for free, out of 20 we replaced 1 (bellsouth.net) a good 2/3 or enterprise servers are based on compaq because there servers are more reliable than most others, I even in most cases prefer them over IBM.
