Hi guys, I know a lot of you are getting in new kit over the summer whether it be pcs, laptops, servers, switches etc but what are you doing with the old ones???? We may be able to buy them off you! So then you can put that towards the cost of your new kit or whatever you like! Obviously, it'll need quoting case by case and i can't promise we'll buy everything but it's worth a shot! Just let me know what your getting rid of, quantity, form factor etc and i'll fire you a price per unit Cheers Luke

Hi, I've PM'd you the price but i'd recommend Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-1NR. The one you've been quoted has been EOL for a while according to Tosh. Cheers

Hi all, Just thought i'd post a quick thanks to everyone that has been in touch with me since Ive been on Edugeek. I've been on here for around 2 months now and it's going well. I hope I've helped with advice and quotes etc so it can continue! It's an excellent site and i can see why it's so popular! Anyway, enough rambling! If you need anything, just shout! Cheers Luke

As promised, this is what i would recommend. Qnap TS-219P+/2TB - this is a 2TB Turbo Nas with a 2 year warranty.It supports iSCSI and it comes with 2 x 1TB drives installed with a max of 4TB. All for less than £350 ex vat with free shipping NBD. Hope this helps! Cheers

Morning all, Work at Home rights are managed by the School (cost for media), whereas Home User Program is ordered directly by the staff member once set up by School admin (cost to FTE) Cheers

I agree with MB2K01. I've had a client with almost the exact same request recently and he went with Qnap. Off the top of my head, I can't think which model he went with in the end but I'll post that in the morning. Very good price. If you need any info about the Qnap (or others) i can arrange conf calls etc for you so you can tell them exactly what your after and they can tell you what you need. I'll post the model tomorrow with the price Cheers

Right, clarification time! EES agreements do include a subscription to MSDN AA free of charge Work at Home rights OR Home User program rights are included under EES, so for example if the school has licensed Office 2010 Pro Plus for their FTE count then the staff can use a copy of Office at home as well. Just goes to show it depends who you ask at MS on what answers you get. I've confirmed this with one of our Account Managers at MS and have it in writing. Hope this helps! Cheers

That's weird then. I know what you mean as some of my clients said the same but when I rang MS yesterday, they said not. I'll clear it up on Monday and get something in writing from them.

Hi, We can get some for you. One of our colleges are getting rid of 8 x Sb580 and we've just purchased them. These any good to you? Cheers

Hi, An EES license doesn't give you access to MSDN unless you purchase a product with MSDN on it under the EES such as Visual Studio Premium. In regards to the teachers home computers question, i'm afraid they can't. There is an option for students to have it (for an additional cost) but nothing for teachers. Not sure why. @sted - You're right. If you take it out for 3 years, your price is fixed. HOWEVER, at the minute, prices keep coming down so it's your choice. A bit like capping your gas prices. Buying EES is a lot cheaper than the old schools agreement and better for the bank balance than buying outright so i think it's a very good thing. Unlike Microsoft to be so helpful! Ha Thanks

Hi, I've seen a few questions floating around regarding the EES agreements and they can be confusing. I know a lot of you will be looking at switching to this as 99% of the time, it saves you a lot of cash. If you have any questions about anything to do with the EES agreements then just post on here, PM, email or call me and i'll try and help you out. Email's best TBH. I've dealt with a lot of these and anything i don't know off the top of my head, i'll find out from MS for you. Just thought i'd offer my services! Cheers Luke

Hi, I'm not 100% sure myself but i can arrange a conf call with VMware for you if you wish? Run though what you're trying to achieve and they'll tell you how to get there. Thanks

Amazon have messed up a few orders for me personally! Grrrrrrrrrrr

Hi Andy, A few of my schools have gone down the leasing route, saves spending £xxxk all in one go. Especially with budgets as tight as they are. If you like, i can arrange a conf call for you with one of our partners to go through exactly what it en tales, pros and cons etc. I can also provide you with pricing. No obligation at all, just to get you a bit more info for you to give to the powers that be! Let me know if this is of interest. Cheers Luke

I haven't used them but they look pretty genuine according to Google reviews. I should be able to beat any price of there's though as they're that big. Happy to do comparisons if you need them Cheers

I can help you out with that. Just sent you a PM Cheers

Ha, nothing wrong with a bit of competition! Maybe a quote-off is in order!

Yes we have loads of HP & Cisco switches in stock. Which E5406 are you looking at?

I know you were just talking retail pricing but just though i'd let you know we have these in stock at: 2510G-48 - £800 2510-48 - £330 So you don't want to be paying more than that really Cheers Luke

Hi, I've just PM'd a price for the HP ProCurve Switch 2510-48. Cheers

Hi, I've dropped some info over on a PM. HP ProCurve Switch 2510G-48 would be a good option! Cheers Luke

Hi everyone, Just thought i'd let you know that we have a massive delivery of HP Procurve & Cisco switches due next week. Loads of different models from the lower end to the top specs. They'll all be heavily discounted. I'm guessing some people will be looking at refreshing switches so if you need any quotes or info, let me know Thanks Luke

Hi Trev, No you can't I'm afraid. The essentials will need to be managed by the Virtual centre that come with the bundle. If you have any questions, let me know Cheers

Hi Dezt, I've sent you a PM Cheers

Hi, I have 38 of these screens in stock. Give me a shout if you need a quote Cheers Luke
