Post #206,084 by broomberg 5/5/05 11:18:52 AM Reply	Here's what I did. I had them both pitch me SATA (IBM) and IDE (EMC) system. I then realized how piss-poor the IDE would run, so I had EMC pitch me the same size in FC drives, but told them I had very little leeway now that I told my boss how much I expected to spend, based on the IDE configuration. Got an incredible price. I then told IBM that EMC's FC price was way lower then their SATA price, and much better performing to boot. Which in turn drove that price much lower. Which I then pointed out to EMC - and so on. Note: I NEVER told the other a real price - that would be breaking the agreement with the vendor. I simply said the other more more attractive.
