I've seen it (or one very similar at Misco for about 650 - nothing much short of a grand at Insight Just got the same KVM as you've got there (although only 1 of them) nice to not have to pull cables out of the back of my running servers every 5 minutes

@andy: Check out the APC Netshelter racks - competivively priced and the best quality rack I've ever seen (it even has huge wheels to get it into place).

@ChrisH: I know - should really move it but can't be arsed.

 

@Andy: Speak to Qual (tel: 0117 373 0010 - try asking for Jo). Stay away from the nasty people at Insight that break promises!

I deal with a nice young lady named Rebecca at Insight - never had any problems. NOw Dabs on the other hand...

@Tarquel: That may be true but if it happens on your first order which is worth over £4500 you aren't going to go back to them when you can go to someone who delivers the goods every time for a negligable amount more.

 

I've used Qual for at least 3 years and never had a problem!

@andy:

 

yep - the lovely Bex [say hi from nathan from wales for me lol] - not my acc manager but she's very nice

 

@Ric:

 

I can understand that Ric, but you were just unlucky - these things happen.

 

I, personally, have never had any problem either (with insight) whereas I've had crap deals from other supposed edu-favourite suppliers.

 

IMO I dont think you can judge them all (as in all the acc managers) - based on one bad order - even if it is your first one with them. I do think however that you get a different level of service with each one tho, which probably isnt quite how it should be [i.e. how can one give one price and another give another price?] - and if you do get bad service from one, you can complain and/or request a different acc manager.

 

I use them for all my external [non-school] dealings because my acc manager always delievers [bless him] - and if something is delayed then lets me know, tho these days, they have set email notifications on the system which is handy

 

anyhow, not gonna go on bout it again lol

 

*shakes ric's hand*

 

I *will* own your APC cab [one day] lol

 

Cheers
