My employer sells servers and neither includes keyboards nor=20 monitors nor mouses. These are extras, since my employer considers servers "unattended machines" and you either have a KVM switch or can rip a KVM-set off some work station, if you have a hardware failure. If you don't have a KVM set at hand, our service team brings it in. So you just need to change to a sane vendor and can exclude that kind of costs[1] in the next contract. Regards Ingo Oeser [1] Just consider the deposit and recycling costs, maintence costs,=20 storage space costs, inventory costs and so on. This all adds up dime by dime for a good amount of servers. --nextPart2032177.fW6g2KMhYS Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBDY5bpU56oYWuOrkARAhu+AJ9TUuptf3mWxytxP8y1nehf5Fr82ACffp6/ PmnlEEJfHSSPqW55OZS18yw= =6sBr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart2032177.fW6g2KMhYS-- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
