+ | The lightweight node price in Quote #2 is $2605, so we could add about six | ||
+ | more nodes for $16K. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The lightweight node price in Quote #1 is $1987, so we would lose about | ||
+ | eight nodes if we needed to reduce the cost by $16K. | ||

+ | ===== In Conclusion ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The main differences between Vendor #1, Quote 2 and Vendor #2, Quote 2 is that the Vendor 2 quote provides fewer nodes, more cores (all are quad-core), and extends the infiniband connectivity to all nodes. | ||
