Dear Amber users and developers,

Our lab will soon shop for a 10-15 nodes of linux clusters to run AMBER
mostly. In addition to the hardware stability and performance,
 we would also like to
consider costumer service as an important factor when making a decision.
I was wondering if you have any suggestions or preferences on any brand
of linux clusters (such as IBM, compact, hp...) so to share with us. Thank
you very much.

Sincerely,
