Please save me from marketing thugs.

I am setting up a brand spanking new data center and am trying to make
an informed decision as to what platform I am going to run OPS on.
Platforms under consideration:

Sun ES450
HP K box
IBM rs6000 F50

I don't want to even consider an NT class machine (I am a UNIX bigot).

If you have any advice regarding hardware (server/storage/network) - I
am all ears (eyes actually).

Thanks,

SCott
