Dell Computer has announced a price reduction for its PowerEdge line of servers. Depending on the model, the cut is from 14% to 47%. The greatest cuts are in fully configured, four-processor PowerEdge 6400 and 6450 servers. For example, a PowerEdge 6450 with four 700 MHz Pentium III processors and 2.0 GHB of memory will drop in price from $31,446 to $18,042. The majority of libraries that installed automated library systems this past year did not need a platform more powerful than the PowerEdge 6450.
