I've been tasked with trying to sort thsi thing out, or at least become educated enough to talk sem-intelligently (Yea! As if!) when/if we have to contract someone to help us out...

Anybody have any sense of direction for me?

Thanks!

I have easily 3 times that in my data centers across the nation!

And I'll beat his price by $.25 ;).

BTW, how's that newbie (Jeff) working out over at your place?

Thanks Chuck and Rusty! I have a meeting Thursday morning with a guy they have used in the past; will see what I can learn in ten minutes or less so I don't look like a complete 'tard. If you guys don't mind, I would like to hit you up when this thing gets a little closer to D-Day (they are supposed to be moving into a new building within a month; starting from scratch)...

Thanks!

I was going to offer some advice, then I read the last post "Jeff is working out awesome and we pay him peanuts" followed by a squirrel ejaculating and I figured Chuck was definitely your man...

Yes, once upon a time in a land far far away, I worked for the crooked E and had over 1500 servers in our data center. Ahh yes those were days, unfortunately, we didn't have any ejaculating squirrels to express ourselves with.
