NOPE!
My advice would be to go buy into a system that has support, as well as the
balls to do what you want! cobalt support takes poor care of it's customers
no matter how many they buy. Thanks to coblt the world if full of servers
that can be hacked by your choice of methods. They seem to be able to make
alot of the same thing but fall short in security fixes and support. but as
they have said for months. We are working on a fix for that. Ya Right. I
wish I could start a class action suit aginst them.
On this list you will find lot's of people willing to sell you equipment and
or services that they will never have to support. They blame cobalt. It's
an appliance like a toaster. I think your 400,000 users expect a computer
system to handle their mail and not a toaster that has little to NO support.
bind, apache, qpopper, they are all screwed and cobalt has done nothing to
fix their boxes. I heard recently that the problems are now listed on
bugtraq so don't just take my word for it.. go look? I could tell you
stories till i'm blue in the face.

Sometimes it's better to just do the right thing from the start.
