Dell, IBM and HP all have good enterprise class hardware. The following link has some good info on64-bit and the underlying hardware requirements. http://www.microsoft.com/servers/64bit/overview.mspx Tony www.activedir.org

We are deploying on HP & IBM hardware (blades, towers & racks) for our clients - both platforms are reliable & stable with the customer preference leaned towards HP side, mind you mine too - the HP servers are IMHO far more user friendly than both Dell & IBM although they are all equal products when it comes to doing the job. In fact from previous experience I seem to prefer dell for reliability even though when they do fail they can normally cause more headache than the others to bring back up. (rebuilding RAID on a Dell IS rocket science, well almost,where with HP, I'm sure my little niece in grade1 can do it. lol)
