CRN gives the ML110 and SBS 5 Stars!

Infrastructure | HP Server Bundle Offers SMB Value, Room To Grow | Small Biz Pipeline

Well, this is what is getting everybody excited about SBS 2003. With standard edition and a nice entry SMB server you can get into the market of networking for only about $1675. Man what a difference a decade makes....think you could get Novell 3.11 for that much??

The only problem with the ML110 is that you can only get 1 processor but really it's not designed for anything more than 1 processor.

This means that for about $4000 you can have a complete 5 user SBS 2003 office setup with hardware, software, and installation included. Pretty cool pricing point!

The only thing that SMB's will want to add is anti-virus and of course as you know I recommend Trend Micro's C/S/M edition for SMB's. Awesome product for the price (about $350) that includes anti spamming as well.
