Yep. When the hardware arrives, and is installed (at $5K or more/rack!),
the bill is due. Acceptance testing? No way. And if we choose to run
something silly like Rocks/CentOS, there's a question of support (even
hardware), too.
I wonder if any vendors follow the exchanges on the Beowulf list! :)
A few do. Scalable, Penguin, some Dell lurkers, the occasional IBMer,
some Streamline and ClusterVision folks ...
They could grab more tips about customer satisfaction than those
surveys they keep sending me after every interaction.
Many of us focus on what customers say and think.
