I'll second the recommendation for Dell, Supermicro, and ASA Computers. In
production, I run Dells for the "core" servers and Supermicros from ASA for
the front-end servers. The lab is mostly Supermicros, some bought as
barebones and some bought from ASA, though there are a few old Dells in
there, too.



Supermicro makes a wonderful variety of high quality motherboards, chassis,
and (combined together) barebones machines. You can buy them from many
vendors, should any particular vendor become an issue. From what I've
heard, they respond excellently to RMA requests and such from vendors, too.



Word on the street is that Supermicro will have Opteron solutions out at
some point; if I remember right, I heard January, so not "that" soon,
unfortunately, but it is better than nothing.
