How much more do servers cost in Australia?
blog How much more do hardware servers cost in Australia? Quite a lot more than in the US, according to a report by small business technology media outlet BIT, in yet another case of the Australian technology tax striking fear into local wallets. The publication reports on the cost of some gear from HP (we recommend you click through for the full article), quoting local reseller Complete PC on the ProLiant N40L and mid-range ML350 models:
“The N40L was just $40 dearer here at $390 but the [RRP] for the ML350 was $7075 locally. The equivalent US product was $2085. However, Complete PC said that they would sell the ML350 for about $3100 as the RRP was higher than the market would pay.”
