[K12OSN] So close....

[Jim Hays]

I deal with GlobalGoved, they are part of Tiger Direct.  We have a 
salesperson assigned to us and I can't be any happier with the service 
we get from them.  They are reasonably priced.  We have several of their 
servers - Systemax - here and we like them.  I have a couple rackmounts 
from them that I would recommend for K12LTSP. 

Don't build your own.  By the time you get all the parts, you may have 
saved $100 but then have all that time and effort to get it fixed.  
Contact GlobalGovEd and set up an account.  You won't be sorry.
