Dell price: $5,040
Rackmountpro price: $3,215

That's a difference of $1,825, or 75% more for the Dell. Especially if you're considering dozens or hundreds of units, that can become a very big deal.


This is like saying that I can buy a car kit (with the warranty/support of each individual component provided by the manufacturer of that component) for less than a fully assembled one with a single dealership providing warranty support. [From the Rackmountpro website FAQ: Each individual manufacturer warranty will apply to each component. ]

Why don't you compare similarly configured systems from the same supplier? i.e. Intel based systems from Rackmountpro vs. AMD based ones? After all if the quality & support provided by Rackmountpro is good enough for your company if the system is AMD based, surely the same applies if the system is Intel based also.
