Last Stock of New IBM x3550, x3650, and HS21XM Servers
Great Lakes Computer, a 23-year-old global IBM reseller with $1 billion in technology sales, announced today it will begin offering the last remaining inventory of new IBM x series x3550, x3650 and HS21XM blade server models.
Consumer demand for the x3550, x3650 and HS21XM line of servers continues to outstrip supply in anticipation of IBM's looming end of life announcement on these models. These servers are being replaced with IBM x3550 M2, x3650 M2 and HS22 respectively.
In anticipation of increased customer demand due to standardization, application issues and budgetary constraints, Great Lakes Computer has been strategically increasing its inventory position on all available new x3550, x3650 and HS21XM models.
For specific pricing and configuration details on the remaining available IBM servers, contact Great Lakes Computer or refer to the accompanying attachment(s). This inventory promotion is only available through Great Lakes Computer and is being offered at discount levels usually reserved for only the largest IBM customers.
The strategy behind our multi-million inventory of new and discontinued IBM products is to help our customers protect those investments. What better way is there than by offering the last new IBM system x3650 servers, x3550 servers and HS21XM BladeCenter servers at the lowest prices in the market?
Great Lakes Computer also carries stock on refurbished xSeries servers, options and accessories that include a complimentary 3 year warranty.
When asked why Great Lakes Computer was offering such steep discounts on the last remaining stock of new IBM servers, their IBM brand manager was quoted as saying "We've been in the business of supporting our customers through transitions in technology for over 23 years. Manufacturers of IT equipment often discontinue products faster than their useful life expectancy, and businesses often find themselves with few alternatives when products they have standardized on are suddenly discontinued. The strategy behind our multi-million inventory of new and discontinued IBM products is to help our customers protect those investments. What better way is there than by offering the last new IBM system x3650 servers, x3550 servers and HS21XM BladeCenter servers at the lowest prices in the market?"
