Re: [cobalt-users] raq2, letter to Cobalt

["abc-123.net" <abc-123@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Man, do not even think about their Linux box, i have talked to a salesman
there, and it is overpriced and has no features like the Cobalt. Whereas,
the new Triton coming out in 2 weeks will be NT, able to setup domains by
following a simple wizard. The low end unit is something like 400 mhz 64 ram
and 6.4 gig drive. For around $1500 and that even includes pcyanywhere. The
high end one is only around $3000 and it will be a 700 PIII with 512 ram and
20 gig drive, and options for a tape backup built in, and is only 1.75
inches tall.
