Meathead, my point is since i've always bot new pc's cpq's or dells that I've had few failures. Dell refurbs's are no good. Both the compnaies I've worked with so far in Austin when I first get there have junk for pc's and one of the companies wasn't even taking backups of critical engr data... now I have with no effort more copies of the data base than could possibly be used. the biggest problem I've had was in 1993 when dell had a monitor fiasco...had 50 dell monitors go out...even that didn't disrupt prodcutivity. They gave us a extra monitor.. when a monitor would start going out... we would give them a good one in minutes and then dell would replace our safety stk monitor again We let users have files on c:\drive...but most their files or on the network drive and most our users are set to auto-backups at nite.. especially all engrs.. plus, since I have a bank of proliants, we have DLT's that back up the data automatically early in morning. plus we cut CD's for key users. and move stuff to historical data warehouses. and we keep disk copies of the ERP and data warehouse going back 6 months. Then there is the raid 5 hot swapable part of it. compaq insight manager handles our backbone components for potential problems. there is no sure thing on the aggie/UT game... anyone can win
