      Same with our HP desktops, failure rates near zero.

      Yeah, getting away from the whiteboxes they had when I started hear has made my job so much easier. Also realized that you can pickup refurbished workstation class hardware for about the same money as a new desktop. That's two orders of magnitude we've moved up in reliability!

          I have a Z420 at work and it's awesome. We bought some new beefy Z400's that are working really well also. 128GB RAM and dual 6 core Xeons.

            Fujitsu isn't bad either. No faults in nearly 6 years, apart from a fan on an AMD FirePro. Decent dual-socket workstation are available too: Celsius R5xx line.

                                      Noticing the age in my profile is wrong.

                                      Just by a day or so, though!

                                        Did some work on a critical server that I built for a customer a few years ago. Noticed uptime: 831 days.

                                        Wow.
