Gabriel X64 Server Survey: Brother, Can You Spare Some Time?

Published: April 5, 2010

by Timothy Prickett Morgan

Our good buddy, Dan Olds, over at Gabriel Consulting Group is looking for customers with X64 server to take part in his annual server survey, and he could use the assistance of readers of The Four Hundred.

Admit it. You have these Winders and Loonix boxes all over the place. They crop up like mold in an unclean bathroom, like mice in a barn, like clouds off the coast of Africa that come whipping across the Atlantic, causing untold damage.

Well, Gabriel Consulting wants to find out exactly what you think of those old X86 and newer X64 servers you use, and what you think of the treatment you get--or do not get--from your suppliers. The first 200 respondents (across all the places that are asking for readers to take the survey) get a $10 gift certificate via email from Gabriel Consulting. Even if you are not in the 200, I would take it as a personal favor from readers of The Four Hundred to take the survey and help us all get a better understanding of the X64 installed base. Thanks for your help. You can take the survey at this link.
