Re: You are saying that IBM will provide service on the new SUNW servers? Why did SUNW not bid on that contract? Yes. I don't know the specifics of the deal, I just read that we got the service contract and SUNW rubbed it in our face that they got the hardware contract. I'm not sure if SUNW bid on the contract. Does SUNW have a services group that can handle big projects? Global Services deals with all brands of hardware. This is necissary, because big companies typically have many different varities of computers, they're looking for one solution, that's what we provide. We outsource entire or partial IT departments in some situations.
