Leigh,
Hi!!

Nice article...

RE: As it has found in some parts of the server business, big corporations are reluctant to turn over critical functions from existing mainframe, mid-range and Unix computers to cheaper Intel-powered systems running Microsoft's Windows NT.

"NT is big and getting bigger, and will surpass Unix," McArthur said.

But until then, Dell is focusing on smaller companies that favor cheaper, off-the-shelf products over proprietary ones.

The devices Dell will announce Tuesday are inexpensive and easy to use, key requirements for small companies with limited capital and technical resources.

Let's hope targeting here to begin follows through ...

Best, Kemble

Leigh - you heard it here first. DELL brings out a NAS device for the small-medium business market. This is a natrual for DELL, leverages both their server technology and their strong sales into the SMB market.
