Hardware Vendors

After doing some capacity/forecast planning recommendations, I've gotten
the green light to start upgrading some servers and purchasing some new
hardware. We currently use a company called Helios. But the quote they
gave me to upgrade some of my V440's from 8 to 16GB RAM and add 2 more
CPUS to some of my V490's gave me sticker shock. I'm looking for a
second opinion from a reliable vendor.



Thanks
