DL360's, DL380's or their AMD Opteron equivalents (DL365's or DL385's). I find Proliants (even from the older Compaq days) to be some of the best kit I ever bought, and over the years I've tried various Dell, Acer, IBM, etc servers. I currently run a range of DL360's and DL380's and couldn't be happier with them. Fully Linux (RH, SUSE, Debian) supported, remote management (console, power, etc) and hardware/snmp agents to monitor the hardware. I run SL exclusively these days btw, from SL308 (one server left on that) to many SL4.4's. Regards, Michael.
