Not sure what you mean, Matt.

Do you mean whitebox hardware that would run the Cobalt OS?  Or a
complete whitebox solution for hosting, to completely replace Sun Cobalt
RaQs with other systems running other Server Administrator software?

If the latter, we're quite happy with Plesk Server Administrator; we've
become a Gold Partner for them.  We don't sell hardware, but we can
certainly turn whitebox systems into nice hosting platforms, but of
course this is a topic for another list, or for offlist.

Of course we continue to use and support Cobalt RaQ servers; we're quite
happy with them as well.

Jeff

I think he is referring to the discussion on XOASIS and QBALT. Both of which seem to be vapor-ware as far as the cobalt platform is concerned at this point.

Unless Jerry has something to contribute on Xoasis?
(I have not seen the beta they were going to send me so far.)

Cheers,
