Any comments on Zope and the Intel Linux setup vs the Cobalt setup? I am looking for a Zope/MySQL combinationsetup and would like to know Pros and cons of each of these setups (hardware)
The RaQ3 is a Intel-like setup (AMD K6-2, I think). Earlier models used an embedded MIPS CPU. I have no personal experience with either, but we use a fair number of them (and some older RaQ models). Zope ought to run just fine on it, but I've never tried. I'm doing some Zope development on a VA 500 (dual P-II-350), and we have two of them for mailservers. No complaints. They come with Red Hat. Using my own RPMs for now.
We're phasing out hosting in favor of DASH (Dedicated Application Server Hosting). This is not a price quote: For about $200/mo, you can get a Cobalt RaQ3 that's all yours, hosted in our colo facility. Other Linux/UNIX platforms supported are VA Research and Sun. If you want NT for some reason, there's an HP box available. For more details, see:
