Will the VA boxen run NT or Linux?

As you know, we are almost VA exclusive at Real Time, there is exceptional
Sparc Linux box. But VA kicks all over Compaq when it comes to the bang for
the buck.

We had a client buy some high end Compaq hardware, they also rock, but the
cost has monsterous.

I did not so the install on the Compaq boxen, Nate any comments on the
install?

I do share in the admin of the Compaq boxen and they seem to be rock solid.
